Having Cancer Empowered Me To Take More

I Don't Want To Be 'the Girl With Cancer' ... I Just Didn't Want That To Be My Only Thing. But It Is Part Of Me. And It's A Big Part Of Me.

There Are Two Types Of People: The Ones Who Give You 50 Reasons It Can't Be Done ... And The Ones Who Just Do It.

I Think Credibility Is One Of Those Things That, If You Work Hard And You Get It By Standing In The Trenches And Traveling The World, People Realize You're Multi-faceted. Part Of Me Is A Serious Journalist And I Loved All Of The Stuff I Did. And Then There's Another Part Of Me That Likes To Let Go And I Think A Lot Of Women Can Relate To That.

I Wake Up At 4:15 A.m., Get Some Coffee, Turn On The News, See What's Happening, Go Clickety-clack On The Web To See What I Missed Overnight. Then I Go To The Gym, Around 5:15, And I Do What Appears To Be A Very Light Workout, But Who Cares. I'm Socializing With Other Nice People At The Gym. Then I Go Into Work, And I'm Really Awake.

I'm An Optimist, So I Think Everything Can Be Worked Out And Fixed. But From Having Cancer I Learned That Even If You're Even An Optimist, Sometimes You Just Have To Face The Facts That Certain Things Are Broken.
