Thanks for writing, Heidi. Thirty years–wow! I’m not far enough out to know for sure, but it does seem that a cancer diagnosis pierces the veil for good. Please do not chastise yourself. Our thoughts cannot create cancer. The uses and abuses of positive thinking are of huge interest to me. As a friend of mine said, “A positive attitude does nothing to change the cause or course of the disease, but it helps you get through it.”

Thanks, Nancy–I’m glad my words capture something you relate to.

Thanks, Ruth!

Thanks, Nancy!
