Yes, I Survived Cancer. But That Doesn't Define Me, by Debra Jarvis (Cristina Peralta)

Yes I survived cancer but that doesn't define me (Debra Jarvis)

In 2005, Debra Jarvis was working on a cancer centre and she received the news that her mother had cancer, and five days later, the news that she has cancer.

She was treated in the same centre where she worked. She learned a lot during her process and curation.
She said that only one part of the cancer experience is about medicine, most of it it's about feelings and losing and finding yourself.

But sometimes she feels like people overplay and comment about what she has, without knowing anything of it.
For her, hear words who spoke from the experience was the best, but of those that didn't, she thinks that they were saying bullshit.

In my opinion, it is never late to be a simple survivor. Claim your experience, don't let her do it, because if you do I believe you be can attract, you will not grow.
I think that no one can tell us what our experiences mean, we have to decide what they mean.
