To someone who has been diagnosed with cancer, I would say, don't panic. There's lots of hope and good cancer treatment out there. Get yourself the best doctor you can find in your area, that's an expert in that particular kind of cancer. You may want to get another opinion or two. Go with the doctor you're most comfortable with, and do whatever they tell you to do. Take care of yourself. Keep your focus on the future, and you'll get through this cancer.
