I’m Not Cancer but Cancer is a Part of Me

I'd like to add - it's a part of life - I'd like cancer to be talked about openly and normalise it rather than feel I'm part of a secret society.I don't mean I want to talk constantly about it nor do I want to feel a leper to be sidestepped or to be spoken about in hushed terms - i am neither ashamed or embarrassed by my diagnosis and am just getting on with enjoying my life . Cancer is part of me not all of me - it's a part of life not all of it.I think we need to be inclusive with others to remove the stigma and fear the "C" work invokes and maybe show that life goes on and that we are still part of it.Thankyou @ElaineG for what you have written.
