The Power of Your Mind & Attitude

Throughout my diagnosis of Hodgkins, I never allowed myself to corrupt my mind with the thoughts of death or disease. Not only did I defeat it on the drawn up time fram, but I would play golf after 8 hour chemo sessions. It is trully amazing what tthe human mind can do. The minute you believe you can demolish any road block, your already ahead of the curve.

    Wow

    dsinkin,

    I love your "gloves off" attitude toward this subject !  I was considered probably clinically dead at an accident scene 26 years ago (but revived).  During my 25-day stay in ICU, I heard myself "Coded" for a crash cart -- an odd thing to listen to.  Then, five years ago, the cancer thing.

     My personal motto is the same as the State Motto of South Carolina: "While I Breath, I Hope." 

     If I am still breathing, I am still fighting !

     

    A blessed Thanksgiving,

    max
