1. How cancer affects our children.
2. Depression after treatment is over.
3. The emotional process of saying goodbye to our pre-cancer self and welcoming our "new normal".
4. There ARE silver linings within a diagnosis of cancer.
These are 4 subjects that hit me hardest and I wish I had known more about it at the time I was dealing with it.
Great idea Brian, I look forward to contributing.
