The American Cancer Society offers the following advice for individuals who have received a cancer diagnosis: become informed about your cancer and how you can improve your health; face your fears, but don’t dwell on them; express your feelings to a loved one or counselor; enjoy the present, rather than dwelling on the future or past; make time to do what you want; maintain a positive attitude; identify things you feel grateful about; eating well and exercise; rest often; and explore different ways to relax.
