Cancer isn't only a horrible disease, she's a great teacher. Here are some of the lessons she's taught me along my journey.

It wasn't yesterday that I was diagnosed with stage 2B invasive ductal carcinoma (a type of breast cancer), but it feels that way. I'm still adversely affected by that life-altering event. On a daily basis, I have to make a choice. I can wallow in the self-pity of what if, or I can choose to be grateful that I'm alive.Cancer is a wonderful teacher. If you let her, she'll teach lessons you never dreamed you needed to learn. Often, in the beginning, it's hard to see and learn the lessons. As the days go by, it's easier to become more aware of the important things cancer has to tell. But not everyone wants to discover the lessons. Not everyone chooses to look for the good in a hard situation. This is part of the lesson.
