What's a good attitude to adopt when my appearance changes during cancer treatment?
A good attitude to adopt when your appearance changes through cancer treatment, is if you look at the side effects of going through cancer treatment as you being successful at fighting the cancer. You're losing your hair because the chemicals that you are taking to fight the cancer are working and maybe you've had surgery because you want to cut out the cancer. It's all positive, and you should focus on that, if you think that the drugs are working, the surgery is working so you're getting rid of the cancer. The cancer is gone because of surgery, the cancer is going because of the Chemo, because of the radiation. It's a positive take on it and you have to look at that. You want to be cancer free, and what you are doing is making you cancer free. It's a badge of courage. It's a good thing!
