Do you struggle with questions like these?
How do I tell my family I have cancer?
How do I tell my boss and co-workers
How do I manage daily tasks such as child care, groceries, carpools, laundry, etc.?
Does anybody understand what I'm going through?
How will I get to my appointments if my treatments prevent me from driving?
How do I handle my treatment side effects?
How will my spouse know what I need? Who will help my spouse?
Why is this happening to me?
Where can I find the best resources?
How do I ask for help? -- What do I ask for?
How do I reconcile my cancer with my faith?
