You ask yourself, “How am I going to get through this?” This may be the first time in your life that you've had to take a survey of your resources and your assets, both personally and financially. The time has come to look at your net worth in personal resources, such as family and friends, as well as the financial and work resources that may help you get through your breast cancer treatments. Included in the asset management are your healthcare providers, who become part of your extended circle of support during this time. Exploring your own sense of spirituality and what it means to you will be the least tangible aspect of your survey, but one that can give you the most support and provide meaning to your experience.
