Tips from My Personal Journey

 

As mentioned at the beginning of this book, I am not a physician or any other kind of health care provider. I am a cancer survivor who wants to assist others by discussing my own experiences as to surviving cancer and embracing life. The book reports my own personal journey as a very lucky person who has lived a good life after getting a diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. I have tried to be as open and forthcoming as possible. Material is included that was painful to write about. But I have also sought to lighten the mood with some anecdotes. To me, I remain the luckiest man the world. I am incredibly blessed!!!

The following tips are mine alone. They have worked for me. Hopefully, some will work for you. Yet, each of us must find and follow our own path along the many roads comprising our journey.

 

Note: Although these tips have benefited me, they may not benefit you. Again, please understand that these are my own personal insights.

The tips are in no particular order. For me, they have all proven to be vital:

  • Love is a cornerstone feeling for us. Strong reciprocal love can help us deal with a lot of things that we didn’t think we could handle. Love someone each day, and show them that you do. My family helps inspire me through their love. I want to inspire them, too, through my love of them.
  • Live life every day. That doesn’t mean we should not plan for the future or not look forward to it.
