Positive

If your parent has cancer and you are feeling positive we are very happy for you :) It may be that the treatment is going well or even better that your parent has fully recovered and doesn´t have cancer anymore. You may also feel positive because good things have happened during your parent´s illness or good things have come out of it. Or it may just be that you're feeling positive about the way you're able to cope with the situation...

The stories in this section relate to feeling positive but they may also relate to other emotions. Because the stories are real and written by riprap users they reflect the situation of each person at the time of writing the story. You may find the same story in other emotion sections if we feel that it is relevant there as well.

If You are feeling positive, you may feel even better by reading stories in this section. If you are not feeling positive at the moment, it may be good for you to read stories that have some positive messages in them as well.
