Cancer pain does more than just hurt…
Cancer pain prevents you from taking care of yourself.
Cancer pain prevents you from sleeping.
Cancer pain prevents you from eating.
Cancer pain prevents you from staying hydrated.
Cancer pain prevents you from exercising.
Cancer pain prevents you from doing simple chores.
Cancer pain prevents you from responding promptly and honestly to family and friends checking in to see how you’re doing.
Cancer pain prevents you from doing the very things you’re fighting to live for–like loving your kids, volunteering your time, connecting with nature, or writing that book you’ve been threatening to write for decades.
DON’T BE A HERO.
