Thought for the day: Telling our cancer stories

Filed under: Thought for the Day

The universe is made of stories, not atoms. -- Muriel Rukeyser

Our cancer stories may be stories of our own or of our loved ones. Of beating cancer. Of loss and grief. Of finding new meaning in life after a cancer diagnosis. Or maybe not finding any meaning in it all. Of realizing just how strong we really are, whether we knew it or not.

I wrote about my experience of losing someone I loved to cancer here.

Some of us share our stories with the world through blogs or books or poetry or music or film or art or activism. Some of us may write our stories in personal journals. Some of us recite them in our heads and hold them in our hearts.

How do you tell your story?
