Facing cancer multiple times requires incredible strength, and it's completely understandable that this journey has been emotionally and physically challenging. Many community members have found that connecting with others who've walked similar paths, practicing gentle self-care techniques, and working with counselors who specialize in cancer survivorship can provide valuable coping strategies and emotional support during this difficult time.

Hi Shirley, I’ve just been diagnosed with bladder cancer and I have a procedure to remove the tumor in November. I wanted to reach out and tell you to hang in and hang on, because you must be a fighter if this is your third time with cancer. May God bless us both in the days and months to come.

I have had breast cancer twice to types and now liver and spine metz. I wish you all the best. Currently on chemo to prevent it from spreading. Now dx with osteonecrosis of the jaw from years of zometa. I use my sense of humor and have learned to take care of myself. Go day by day and enjoy everything you can.🙂
