You've heard of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Well, I embarked on similar journey when I fell down the rabbit hole of Cancerland.
What is Cancerland? Think of it as the intellectual, emotional, and psychic amusement park of cancer treatment where every ride, game, and attraction demonstrates a different aspect of humanity's complexities and individualism during treatment. Cancerland provides multiple explanations of the way things are in the physical, spiritual, psychic, and dream worlds of crisis.
When my intuitive suspicion of breast cancer was medically confirmed, I considered suicide as a means of freeing myself from a painful uncertainty. I was engulfed by fear of the unknown and wanted to avoid the gruesome death Mom had suffered from cancer sixteen months earlier. Fortunately, armed with lessons I had learned throughout life and especially while caring for Mom, my inner selves became united in the goal of survival. Everyone battling any life-threatening illness has his or her own set of questions concerning treatment and survival. Unfortunately, questions concerning intuition often remain unanswered by the medical field. Spiritual guides, angels, intuition, gut instincts, call them what you will, "voices" and dreams have gotten a bad rap in society. Just ask Joan of Arc. Her voices were a double-edged sword that led her to both victory and the stake. Yet they saved my life and were a help and comfort to me during treatment. Without their intervention, I believe I would be dead, and this book would be a buried idea. My voices are as much a part of my battle as the medical staff and treatments.
I hope my story helps and gives comfort to other cancer survivors and to patients who will soon be survivors, too. Please tweet me on Twitter @PsychicHealing and on my web http://@survivingcancerland.com
