Right now you probably believe that if you let go of who you were before the cancer, then you might disappear altogether. But that couldn’t be further from the truth. Letting go of the old version of you is the only way to allow yourself to discover who you’ve become.

I intend to appreciate, marvel and enjoy all the time that I have left, with cancer or without it.

Those of us who have been through cancer know that surviving treatment isn’t where the cancer journey ends. In fact, for many of us, this is where the hardest part of the journey begins.

Where is the support and guidance for what comes after the treatment? Shouldn’t someone prepare us for what comes next?

There needs to be more guidance and support for the next part of the cancer journey, otherwise we survive the treatment only to get back into life and fall straight flat on our faces.

The Cancer Misfit is for survivors who feel confused, misunderstood, isolated, overwhelmed, fearful or anxious after treatment. It is a life raft for survivors who have finished cancer treatment – whether that was last week, last month, last year or ten years ago – and are struggling with what comes next. It is a guidebook to living your best life, even after going through cancer treatment, and even if you still have cancer.
