Keep The Shoes

I have a friend who, after receiving her cancer diagnosis, returned a brand new pair of shoes to the store. My friend assumed that even with treatment, she might not live long enough to use them.

Keep the Shoes is a reminder about the importance of planning for success. Success means different things to different people. But regardless, it is difficult to go through cancer treatment without a belief that having the treatment will benefit you in some way. Amid all the day-to-day appointments, don’t forget to make plans, set goals and dare to imagine a future for yourself.
