Firstly, thank you for sharing your story. I hope you remain cancer free. You're an inspiration.

  1. Did you ever lose hope? If so, what brought it back? If not, what do you attribute that to?
  2. What advice do you have for someone who has just been diagnosed with cancer?
  3. What was the most beautiful / inspiring moment during the ordeal, if there is one?
  4. What's it like to be awesome?

Thanks again.

To be clear about question #3.

I truly believe that there are moments, no matter how simplistic or random, in the midst of a horrible situation, that are the most beautiful moments because of the contrast. An example, for me, was a nurse holding my hand while I was going under anesthesia (nothing as serious as what you've gone through), which brought me peace. I never saw her again, it was completely random, and yet it sticks with me as an example of just how important taking a few seconds to treat people with compassion can mean.

I wasn't sure if you had anything like that.

Thank you very much for your answers, time, and wisdom.
