Cancer survivor says??
VICTIM OR SURVIVOR
Being a victim is a state of body. Being a survivor is a state of mind.

A victim fears hair falling out. A survivor knows bald is beautiful.

A victim knows about feeling down. A survivor knows feeling down is okay.

A victim dreads the side effects of treatments. A survivor wonders how to cancel his membership in the Side-Effect-of-the-Month Club.

A victim is amazed at all the tears. A survivor never leaves home without Kleenex.

A victim goes to "see" a doctor. A survivor "consults" with his or her physician.

A victim gets caught in despair. A survivor prays a lot.

A victim feels helpless. A survivor says "thanks" with dignity and grace.

A victim enjoys a good laugh. A survivor loves one.

From the moment we are diagnosed, we are victims. We must choose to be survivors.
