Commentary In Pursuance Of Books Live Strong: Inspirational Stories from Cancer Survivors-from Diagnosis to Treatment and Beyond
I listened to this book on CD and found it incredibly inspiring. I would recommend this book for everyone, but especially anyone who has been touched by cancer. It's a horrible disease and the individuals who tell their stories in this book are so strong and so inspiring. The positive outlook and love of life these survivors share is amazing. Each story describes his/her unique battle with cancer, the diagnosis, the treatment, the recovery, and the impact on family, friends and life. I was amazed by how many individuals have turned their cancer experience into an opportunity to give back to the cancer community. Many discuss how they have established foundations, support groups and participate in clinical trials all in an effort to support the fight against cancer. They look beyond their own personal struggle to find ways to help others. Amazing and inspiring.Listening to these stories made me think a lot about my mom, her cancer fight and her death. Throughout the 3 years of her cancer battle she maintained such a positive attitude and did not let her illness stop her. Despite having over 60% of her stomach removed due to stomach cancer, undergoing chemotherapy, then having a hysterectomy because of ovarian cancer and then radiation and more treatment, she still lived life. She didn't let it stop her from working, traveling to visit family & attend my brother's soccer games, spending time as a family and doing all the normal stuff of life. She continued living life to the fullest at every moment and every opportunity. She is truly inspiring to me and serves as my personal example of "livingstrong."

"I started to embrace what I went through and who I am. I started wearing skirts and showing the big scar on my leg" -- Cancer survivorThese stories were stories of strength, of overcoming pain and suffering, but most importantly, the embracing of life, of one's unique experience and future, and who oneself is.Life is too short to be unhappy, and to worry about things out of one's control."I must fight for myself, for weekdays, for living life to the fullest - I am not ready to die."-- Cancer
