C+1 Introduction

Introduction The pain and suffering that a patient with cancer goes through is astronomical. The pain affects you and the people around you mentally as well as physically. You would think it would be a crime to just live everyday life with no physical ailments, and just waste time while there are people that suffer all around the world from a disease, yet their regular day to day doesn't stop.

These people still have families, bills and everything else life throws them.

So, with that being said, my question to you is, why waste time? The irony of this situation is from the moment you were born you were pressed for time, because everyone that is born will suer a death one way or another; it's inevitable. So why do we always wait until we are under pressure to start panicking and acting as if we are going to change? I don't believe there is a person on earth that isn't guilty of this. I actually believe it's human nature. The involuntary function of living I think people can take too literal as well. Life can become an abyss and

we can begin to drift so far that once many of us wake up we can no longer navigate back to the places that we once lost. But why? When we have so much fight? We have so many gifts, and many of us do not know how great we are until something happens to us. These Diary entries are intended to uplift your minds as well as your thoughts as you empathize with some of our present and past situations. Notice I said empathize and not sympathize, because no one is asking you to feel sorry for us, we are simply asking for you to try to understand

our plights. These are the stories of 8 remarkable individuals and their plights as they navigate through Cancer and Multiple Sclerosis.
