Cancer ' s fighter script is borrowed from medicine, whose script is a battle against death and disease. There are times when you need to fight. But there may be days when you are too tired to fight, or too sick to fight, or when the prize is not worth the cost. And fighting does have a cost. Women with cancer are not all the same, and there is no reason they should all deal with cancer in the same way.
Some women are uncomfortable in the fighter role.
Others have religious or cultural reasons for not fighting. These are stories of how real women deal with cancer. They are divided into five scripts. Your cancer journey may follow one of these scripts, all of them, or none of them. You may have a different script each day.
