Kylie Minogue, Cancer Battle Still Causes Singer to Feel 'Incredible Anger' -- Potent Quotables

Continuing to think about cancer only keeps you in its grasp and it will return.. Even the bible tells us( As a man/woman think...so is he or she). You have to forget it and move on. We get what we give persistent thought to.

I'm a survivor of an extremely aggressive breast cancer. Both breasts are gone and there are lingering side effects. Do I feel anger? Sorrow? Pity? No. I look at my scars and I see a SURVIVOR. Cancer picked me...oh well...fight it, beat it, and move on.

in actuality, one should SEE THE BLESSINGs that come with the dis~ease ... for it forces us to look further within ourselves as to what we are manifesting through our lives, m ore importantly, our thoughts! We are responsible for our own Body Temples ... and if we carry a node of anger, fear, etc .... we are only manifesting more of the same ... Love your dis~ease ~ find the Blessings in the lessons ... the wisdoms you have learned ... therein you will HEAL your Heartspace ... Your Body Temple!

Love Blessings be with You!!

If we had cancer yes, we are survivors, but we also have a right to any feelings we want. I am happy to be a survivor and grateful for everyday that I have and I am ALIVE! I am allowed to be angry at what I endured as a cancer patient. Yes, I am mad I got cancer, I am mad about how much the treatments took out of me, what the treatments did to me mentally/physically, I am mad at what my family had to watch me go through and what they had to see/feel. No one has the right to judge any cancer patient on how they feel. Walk a mile in our shoes. If we want to be angry then we will be angry. It does not mean that we are angry everyday of our lives and I don't think Kylie is either. When you have a serious disease, it is always lingering in the back of your mind....is it back....will it come back. No matter how positive you stay it is there. I feel bad for all of you who have lost a loved one to cancer or any other serious disease. I imagine if you did lost a loved one to cancer there are moments that you are angry that cancer took them from you. I imagine you are not happy everyday either. To Kylie Minogue, I applaude you for voicing how you feel. Too often we survivors are expected to be happy and gratful all the time being we have survived. Keep up that smiling face everyday...every moment. We are survivors yes....but it is still painful mentally....years later.

cancer and any other illness that leaves emotional or physical scars is devastating, for people who claim to not be angry or think about more power to them, but as someone who has been to hell and is still there I dont know how to not be angry or wondered why I wake up in the morning, I just dont want to be here anymore I dont know how to cope and they dont make a happy pill for that.

As someone who has been living with cancer for 13 years, I can speak from experience. I do not come from a place of anger but one of good fortune. I have watched my children grow, I now have grandchildren and my health is good, the cancer is in chemical remission. When I was diagnosed with recurrence and became stage 4, I saw a counselor to help me through the process of grieving my old life and embracing the "new normal". It takes time but it allowed me to move forward with my life and to stop waiting for the cancer to come back. It's been a few years now, and I know how blessed I am. I live each day fully and have tried to help others who are going through this.

I was 31yo when I was dx, 4 years ago. It will always be with us and we are allowed to feel however we want about it, no matter how many years out. Cancer has taken so much from us but it teaches us much more than we ever thought, about ourselves and others. Don't ever let someone tell you how you should feel. All we can do is enjoy the time we have and try our best to move from survivor to thriver. We all have our battles and they don't need to be compared. Live, Love and Laugh :)

Just thank God your alive my sister died at 43 she fought it 5 years, so please dont complain

Her anger needs to be directed at the AMA and drug companies who are withholding the natural and safe cures and hiding behind false research and using confusion to keep the public wondering. We have always had cancer cures, these companies need to be charged with war crimes against the world. Learn the truth and take charge of your own health.

Kylie, you probably won't be fortunate enough to read the kind words of encouragement from women like PioneerSusan or myself but I will give it a try. I agree with PioneerSusan you need spiritual guidance instead of looking at having cancer and what you went through so negative. You need to learn to stop and count your blessings. Part of beating cancer is additude, get a good one and leave what happened in the past. Stop being so full of anger it's a waste of your energy. I know this because I am a cancer survivor too.
