Top 10 Ways to Know You Are a Cancer Survivor

I found this on a website tonight when I was looking up cancer jokes.  Why was I looking up cancer jokes?  Because this is a serious disease, but every now and then, you have to laugh at it, or the bitterness will eat you up before the cancer has a chance to get you.  It doesn matter if you are still in treatment, or through it...we are all survivors.  I hope this gives you a little chuckle!

I think I can "tweak" No. 2......as my birthday is approaching my daughter called and asked what we had planned. I told her her Dad has had the flu this week and that we'd be celebrating my b'day another day.  I told her that once you've had cancer you can do whatever you want, and this year I thought I'd change my birthday and celebrate it on March 8th instead of the 2nd. There was total silence at the other end of the phone.  She said, "Who made up that rule".  I said, "I did".........she sighed and hung up (LOL)
Better not mess with us warriors!
