Living with Stage Four - A Strong Spirit

"The human spirit can endure a sick body, but who can bear it if the spirit is crushed?" - Proverbs 18:14


I was talking with a friend whose wife received a lung cancer diagnosis a few years ago. She was not a good patient, he said. She didn't take her medicine all the time and she was emotionally upset, depressed about her condition. She died four months later.


My brother-in-law Tony came by to visit. He had just gotten over prostate cancer. He said his doctor told him a story: A man was given a diagnosis of cancer. He saw his situation as hopeless and became very distraught. He died three months later. An autopsy was performed that revealed he didn't have cancer -- he was misdiagnosed. So his own mind is what killed him.


My plan is to do the opposite. I reject these cancer cells. My focus is on healing and strength -- mind and body. They tell me I have cancer, but THEIR cancer does not have me.
