Key Takeaways
1. Living in the moment is something Dr. P has focused on for his entire life. Once he was diagnosed he began to cherish each moment and take risks ensuring he lived his life to the fullest. He emphasizes stepping out of the box and trying new things. He encourages each and every one of us to meet people, go places, see family, and continue living your life as if nothing were to ever happen. He emphasizes that cancer does not define you rather it challenges and tests you but only you can control what you do, not the disease.
2. Don't let cancer define you. Dr. P heavily emphasizes the importance of continuing to live normally. The moment we let cancer define who we are, we let go of any normalcy that remains in our daily life. If we continue to challenge ourselves and push ourselves to live life outside of our inner monologue we will soon realize the true value of humanity, family, time, and happiness.
