The most difficult single thing that you as a cancer patient will be required
to do in the entire battle is to make up your mind to really fight it. You
must, on your own, make the commitment that you will do everything in your
power to fight your disease. No exceptions. Nothing halfway. Nothing for the
sake of ease or convenience. Everything! Nothing short of it. When you have
done this, you have accomplished the most difficult thing you will have to
accomplish throughout your entire treatment. And it doesn't make any
difference how serious or how minor you are lead to believe your cancer is.
If it is minor, great. Your commitment should not be difficult to abide by.
If you are told you are going to die in 3 months or 3 years or whatever,
then it makes that commitment that much more vital. There are a lot of
"terminal" people alive, healthy and cancer free. There is no type of cancer
from which some people have not been cured. There is no type of cancer for
which there is no treatment.
To give up requires no commitment. You can stay in the comfort of your own
lifestyle. Fighting means a complete change of lifestyle, absolutely leaving
your comfort zone. There will be doctors doing things you might not like.
There will be lots of work for you to do. There might even be some pain and
suffering and certainly, lots of new and unexpected experiences. You must
decide that the end is worth the means because you are the only one who can
do it. No one else can do it for you. There is no half way. It's all the way.
But when it is all said and done, no matter what the results, I've never met
anyone who felt it was not the best way. Go for it with no second thoughts or
regrets.
Once the commitment has been made, it is not surprising to see how the
patient's quality of life immediately improves. After all, there are no more
decisions to be considered. Every action is automatic. If it can conceivable
help, it is done. If it could possibly be a detriment, it is not.
Remember, once you have made the commitment, everything else is relatively
easy. There will be pleasant experiences. There will be unpleasant
experiences. But I can promise that nothing is as difficult as making the
decision to make the commitment. Good luck and God bless.
