It is Good to Fear - E.11 - Cancer Is Not Your Shepherd
Episode 11

12m
We fear when we have cancer. But we fear the wrong things, like:
Fear regarding the next blood test
Fear of more bad news
Fear that the cancer will come back
Fear that your spouse will be widowed (or become a widower)
Fear of the children losing a parent
Fear of not walking your daughter down the aisle at her wedding
Fear of missing out on grandchildren
Fear of judgment
