Positivity
While i was going through treatment with my cancer the thing that kept me going was to stay positive. I know its hard to do but it really made a difference to me and helped me with all the down times i was having. it also made a difference to the people around me!!!!! Life in the childrens hospital of wales was good thanks to alisha the youth worker who does a lot of hard work with the children giving them things to do and keeping them occupied and people do a lot of good when they give old videos nd games for the children to use!!! what also made a differece to me when i was in hospital was i was sharing a room with another boy my age called kristian, while we were there our parnts and us bonded really well. But staying positive was the biggest help for me during my battle with cancer and look i am out the other side with a better outlook on life now!!!!!! :) adam
