    ✨Allow Yourself to Feel Everything:

    ✨Set Boundaries:

    “My diagnosis does not define me.”

    “I am still whole, even as I heal.”
    .
    .
    ✨Focus on What You Can Control:
    Small acts of care — like daily walks, journaling, or quiet time can help you feel grounded when everything feels uncertain.
