YOUR BEST ADVICE

 

 
Q: What have you learned about yourself since you were diagnosed with cancere?

"I learned I have to stay out of the sun. I was a sun person all my life: I was a boater, I had a motorcycle. Now I'm paying for it."

--James Cairns, an 80-year-old Dearborn Heights resident who has skin cancer

I learned to give my kids as much love as I can -- so much it overflows -- so that someday when I'm not here, they can go back to that bank.

---Fatin Maizy, a 46-year-old Wixom resident who has breast cancer
