Sometimes in life we really get too busy to take care of ourselves, and things start sliding. Sheryl Crow is saying that being diagnosed with Cancer helped her to realize that she needed to take care of herself more. Sheryl was diagnosed with the disease in February 2006 but known has been given the all clear after a lumpectomy and radiation treatment.

�Breast cancer helped me put myself first in life. Once I stepped out of radiation, I had to remember that the only person who could take care of me was me. I�d better do that before I take care of everybody else, instead of everybody else first. I feel more connected to my life now that I�ve had – and beat – breast cancer.�

I am just learning this now. You would be no good to anyone if you didn’t be ‘selfish’ once in a while.
