I thought It might be helpful for us to tell what we can still do post treatment! If I was a new cancer patient it might relieve some of the fear.

I can still sing.
(and I joined our church choir, something I had put off for years)

I can whistle again!
(not quite as well as before but it is coming along).

I can eat anything!
(although for practical reasons I don't eat saltines, popcorn {unless more than 90% butter}, and superhot spiced food.).

I can still speak with mostly perfect enunciation!
(too bad for those people whom don't agree with my positions in politics and stuff :p ).

I can physically do virtually anything I did before treatment!
(But I am getting older and so I may choose not to chase down my 16 year old son lest he find out I can't catch him anymore).


There was a time during my treatment when I wondered if any of the above things could be done ever again. Some things came back fairly quickly, others much slower (in fact are still getting better.)
