Day Twenty Six

I have to learn not to listen our take to heart what everybody says. It frightens the living cr*p out of you otherwise. Last night, somebody argued with me that the fact that I am not in pain is bad. They also said to me, don't become complacent about the fact you have cancer, I had to watch my father die of it. They meant well, but it really scared me. I now have this little voice in my head whispering "You have cancer". Well, you know what? It can just shut up and go and upset somebody else. Yes, I have cancer, but I also have a body which is about as physically ready to fight it as it possibly can, and my mind is set to get better. This person has made me scared of what I eat - don't eat red meat, or proteins like cheese and milk. I already eat healthily, and have switched to soya milk, taking echinacea and eating loads of fresh fruit and veggies, pomegranate juice and so on. I have enough inner demons at the moment to worry about, without other people adding to it. If I sound angry, I suppose it's because I am and I don't like to be this way. So, I won't be! Deep breath, put on a smile and just get on with the task in hand! Take that, you horrible little voice!!
