@mr chipps Hello mr chipps, thank you for opening this discussion. I'm sorry to hear about your diagnosis, but I'm glad that you're starting to come to terms with it. Let me tag some other members who can maybe share how they learned or are still learning to cope with cancer.
Hello everyone, how are you today? 
As you all know, receiving a cancer diagnosis can be life-changing. How was it for you? How did you learn to accept and cope with your cancer diagnosis? Do you have any insights or advice to share with us?

i was recently diagnosed with prostate cancer, and found myslef unable to cope with the monster, that i beleieved had invaded me and made me feel filthy inside. .
but now with talking to urology consultants and other nursing specialists, i can cope and accept that it will not kill me, but i will live with it like several other long term medical conditions. i am gald to be live
i wou;d like to try and learn how other people learned to accpet and live with their cancer diagnosis and move on with their lives etc
