For me fear and anxiety due to cancer has subsided. I don't fear a recurrence everytime I feel a lump I didn't notice before or when I have an irritation in my mouth etc...

I guess for me I'm not going to waste whatever time I have left on this earth worrying about something I can't control. What will be will be. That doesn't mean that I will stop going in for my checkups or anything like that. If I have to go another round I want to make sure I have the best chance at living because frankly I love my life. But I also understand that I'm not going to live forever nor am I guaranteed tomorrow so I focus on living every minute to the fullest.

When I started to live my life this way, frankly I've been surprised what I can accomplish and how sweet life is.
