Don’t waste your cancer

Don’t waste your cancer. Use it to help others. I wish I could take credit for the title. I borrowed it from a short booklet called “Don’t waste your cancer”, by John Piper. It’s true for more than “just” cancer, not that cancer is a small thing. Rather, my point is that even the way we deal with small problems can help others.

So this is what will be, I pray, a look at my now eight and a half year journey to being “cancer free”. Of course, nothing is guaranteed, but that’s my hope and prayer.
