We don't really know what we are eating when we buy fruit and veges but at least we are eating them which is better than not eating them. When you eat meals prepared outside your home you really can't be sure if they are as healthy as they look either.We can only try to do what is best. ... View more

I have googled cancer myths and there are several. On other sites I use I've read about "cancer cures"e.g. asparagus,citrus ....I forget the rest . I'm sure it all helps but some do all this and then lose the battle . I know how to eat healthily but it takes effort and planning and I have become a bit lazy . I should be walking daily,but am waiting for better weather. It's probably here most days now. I rarely drink alcohol and don't smoke. I used to smoke and am glad that smoking is not linked to my cancer. From early 1995 till late 2002 I was fanatical about healthy eating and was happy but it was difficult when I was out .I wish I had the self discipline today.I didn't go for fad diets or over the top stuff,just absolutely no junk food and normal good food from all food groups. ...

1 am 60 now and my husband 65 and even before my diagnosis early last year I was becoming anxious to turn our garden into a low maintenance one.My husband likes to have change and goals and projects but I just want it easy,simple and able to kept that way if one of us dies or is unable to help. Since my cancer I want to have it my way even more ,so I can enjoy it without too much work. I get my way sometimes but he has needs too so there have to be compromises. My goals are very simple-to make life simple . Other goals are get fitter ,eat healthier ,exercise more ,drop 2or 3 kilos.- I am fairly healthy at this time while the cancer is hibernating.If I was your age I may very well feel like you feel . It seems like you are afraid of the cancer returning or some other health problem and yet you may be ok for many,many years. I supposed it made you realise that you are not invincible,that you won't live forever. Cancer does that but you may live for decades yet. Forgive me if I am wrong as I am assuming you have been cleared. Please correct me if I am wrong. ... View more
