CristyCurves 169032 Report post Posted May 12, 2015 A sense of humor is one of the most attractive traits a person can have. It is the perfect medicine for many of life's ills. Use it when you are down and you are sure to be back up in no time:) It's residual affects are also very attractive, ie: the smiles it leaves on others:) 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnybird 4391 Report post Posted May 12, 2015 Good luck to you bcguy42 :) No matter how difficult it may get, never stop laughing. It's part of your treatment. Laughing is so much better than crying. Nothing wrong with crying occasionally either, it just makes more room for the laughter that's all. ;) 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CasinoMing 1967 Report post Posted May 19, 2015 First... all the best, bcguy42. Cancer treatment is horrendous.. been there, done that, and still around to joke about it (sort of). The ability to laugh at oneself is lacking in some of us. Life's twists and turns can sometimes leave you hopeless. Laughter brings a respite, allows us to recharge and continue the battle. Most of my friends and definitely the providers I see - all have the natural ability to laugh.. at themselves, at funny situations and laugh with others. As they say, laughter is the best medicine. I agree. CM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
