How to tell your family?

I just cheçked on here,and saw your new post.Your doctor sounds great; if only all doctors would advocate exercise during treatment.And yoga is great! I will tell you how I told my family.My husband was overseas,and I waited until I knew for sure that I had cancer,then I called him,and of course he came straight home.As for the rest of my family,sisters,brothers...they all live interstate,and as weird as this might sound,I didn't tell them until about 2 weeks ago!! My sister was a bit cranky,but as I explained to her,it was easier for me to just tell my husband and children,and people that would see me every day.I didn't actually see a reason to tell everyone else until afterwards.The great thing about this was,that when I told them,I was through my treatment and feeling great,and they didn't have to worry.I really didn't want people calling me all the time,and always feeling obligated to keep them up to date with every little thing.I don't speak to them every day,so,it really wasn't a problem.It worked for me anyway,and I would do it the same way again.I truly believe that you need to do what feels right for you.
