Brianna Wagner has a pretty great attitude about battling cancer. Brianna, who has stage 3c ovarian cancer, has certainly had her share of troubles, and she was really honest with SurvivorNet when it came to discussing those troubles. But still, she tries to appreciate the life that she has as much as she can. The advice she gave is worth hearing for anyone facing a new cancer diagnosis. (Or anyone who could just use a little positivity in their life!)
Brianna’s first piece of advice: Stay off the internet. “Google can make things seem a lot worse than they are … and try not to get all that negativity in your head. You want to stay positive.” Brianna did this by dressing up in different costumers every time she went in for chemotherapy.
