Dealing With Cancer As an Adult
Having a father that was diagnosed with cancer put the reality of illness into my life. At the age of 19 I was faced with a dying father who did not know what to do. Even though I had my faith in God, I wanted some answers as to what was happening.
Having Hope is a trying situation:
Many times it is important to remain hopeful even though things may look bad or not in your favor, having important friends that can help you can take your life much further than you thought possible.Sometimes, all that is needed is a friend who can help in times of need rather than having someone who is what we as Americans coin "Party pooper."
Even though my father had a trying time while he was passing. There is still the ability to rejoice and remain hopeful in the face of cancer. It is important when you have emotional wells that open up to remain calm and relaxed as much as possible. This will keep the emotion from completely taking you over.
Here are some small tips to help see the bright side of trying emotional times.
1. Pray daily, it is important to remain and keep a strong spiritual connection when you are going through hard times, this helps to channel your energy in other places rather than on the problem itself, or on the future, it is important to "be here now", when emotions may get in the way.
2. Remember that cancer is not always terminal. New treatments are available that can help suffers overcome certain cancers. There are numerous stories of cancer survivors, miracles, and remission that shock doctors everyday.
3. Read spiritual enlightening material daily -- This can help keep your mind fresh and aware of everything that is happening to you and it will help give you a good perspective of your situation
