Loved this quote from Christina Applegate/Melissa Etheridge

Taken from Oprah.com:

~~  Days after her diagnosis, Christina (Applegate) says she reached out to family and friends, including Melissa Etheridge, a Grammy winner and breast cancer survivor. Melissa shared the lessons she learned during the fight for her own life.  "The first thing she said to me is: 'Christina, this is a blessing that's happened to you in your life. Right now, you get to start over, and right now you get to change everything—the way that you deal with things in life, the way that you react to things. Fear can hurt you. Stress can hurt you. This is the time that you have this opportunity to change the way you eat…everything you do,'" Christina says.  ~~
