Wise rules for socializing after cancer Share Facebook Twitter Print details Need a reminder that you can set guilt-free boundaries? Watch for wise advice on getting the social connection you want after cancer — and saying no to what you don't want. Mostrar la transcripción After cancer, take time to reset your priorities as you transition back to "normal" life. You get to choose. Who you make time for. Say yes only to social events you genuinely look forward to — including virtual gatherings. You get to choose. What you share. Decide how you'll answer questions — especially those you don't feel comfortable answering. You get to choose. How much you schedule. Fatigue from treatment may last for a while. Set limits to protect your energy and comfort level. You get to choose. Which activities you'll pursue. You may find that former groups, clubs and volunteer work no longer appeal. Follow new passions. You get to choose. Who you prioritize. Choose people who will stay by your side through your "new normal" and any setbacks along the way.
