Living My Legacy

The journey began in 2007 I notice a small lump on the right side of my neck, 2008 the discover process the the verdict in December 2008, cancer surgery and treatments in 2009, my gift to the world came alive in 2010, 2011 in print and now hundreds in the hands of others.

My mission is to offer hope and encouragement to everyone I meet! How you may ask? Through my book, presentations, keynotes, training programs, connecting and adding value to others in anyway that I can daily. Living my "Life List" daily, not my "Bucket List" but my life list, the listings of tasks that I must live and do daily to live my legacy. How about you?

Testimonial:                                                                                                                                         "My son Tony P. bought your book for me. It's not about cancer its about you. I've been fighting breast cancer in 2006 and again in 2009. I enjoyed your book so much, especially the six reasons to keep living and enjoying your gift of life. it really inspired me. Tony has many great things to say about you. I thank you for writing this book. I imagine it will inspire many! Thanks again."

Judy P. 11/19/2011

My mission is to gift my book as to many people as I can. Many people have purchased as a gift to someone they knew facing cancer or other mountains in their life. My book is about what cancer taught me about fighting my cancer and living my best life. it's not a book about cancer, title; It's not about cancer it's about you, it's about facing opportunities in life bigger than you!

My programs are designed to inspire you to live your best at work as well as at home, with co-workers, friends and family.

Change is Okay!

In my book I have a chapter on "Change is okay!" because it is. Cancer taught me many things and the one big thing is that, change is happening and it isn't going to stop just because I want it to. Today 11/17/2011 marks my 31 months as a cancer survivor!

Change is going to happen in your life and everyone you know, every day, every second of the day. The understanding that "it is what it is" also a sub-chapter in my book, change is happening every second, the question is are you accepting change or fighting it? When the Doctor tell's you that you have cancer or any other terrible thing you can't turn it off, can't go back in time, no changing the message, you can fight it, build your "Cancer-Fighting Team" and get ready for the change that is going to happen. Just like many things in life both at home and work, things change, and the better we can adapt, adjust and accept change the better the journey will be.

Working with sales and leadership teams it sometimes amazes me how hard it is to change for some people, the barriers that we build, the excuses and the justifications don't help us deal with change, they may postpone some of the change, but if change is happening then either change with it or get out of the way, don't become a barrier, be a warrior!

Change is okay, I help change happen, I encourage change and I love change because then I grow, just as you do!

Here I go again, encouraging change, through inspiration!

I remember the fellow I was speaking with was scared to death to get up in front of the hundreds of people at this Cancer Survivor Celebration, but guess what, he changed his thinking which changed his fear to excitement! Change is okay.

Be a blessing, it's easy...

Yes it's very easy, as simple as who do you know that may have cancer, facing their giant, a caregiver or co-survivor? The purpose of my book and story is not to pocket the profit, but allow the funds from the book sales to pay to keep producing more books to offer as a gift to someone in need. I haven't met a person yet who doesn't know someone who has been touched with some form of cancer, I hope that if you're like me and you know someone, you would invest less than $20.00 to gift that special someone with my little gift to the world, my book.

I've found that my life is so much more rewarding the more I can do for others, share, inspire, encourage or just do something special for someone. In my program; Four Things You Simply Most Know About Other People" I share, everyone needs someone, and somebody want's to be someone! Help me lift others, inspire courage and encourage someone you know facing their mountian in life, cancer.

I'm to blessed to be stressed, and being a blessing, it's easy, it's just a choice.

My signature gift bags (left corner of stage) follow me to most of all my programs, I believe those that particiapte and share should be gifted!

An Unforgettable Journey, C.A.N.C.E.R...

and how it can add to the bottom line!

I've found that the key is to get the people involved with my message and give them something to take home and work to make a difference.

My cancer journey taught me many things, one of those was how to take this thing (cancer) and turn it into something helpful, a new purpose and a way to add value to others. From my book, It's not about cancer it's about you, I've developed two programs, one motivational and designed to help you live your best life and this one for the corporate side of me, business and professional development. Both are very interactive, engaging, and developed to help you personally or professionally. I learned that when the cancer came, "it is what it is" my choice was to turn it into a purpose to help others, add value and have fun along the journey!

Either would be great for your next conference keynote or workshop. Please just let me know how I can help you help your people live their best life and add to the botoom line!

Sincerely,

The Cancer-Fighting Speicalist

Annual Cancer Survivors Celebration: “Six Reasons to Keep Living and Enjoying Your Gift of Life”

“The true gift of life is about giving, sharing, inspiring and enthusiastically living life to your fullest potential.”– Larry S. Cockerel, key-note speaker

Marshfield Clinic and Ministry Saint Joseph's Hospital warmly invite cancer survivors of all ages, and their families and friends, to the annual Cancer Survivors Celebration at Relay for Life of the Marshfield Area.

Just who is a “survivor?” The National Cancer Survivors Institute defines cancer survivorship as the experience of living with, through and beyond cancer for those experiencing this diagnosis and the people in their lives who are impacted by it. It comprises the physical, psychological, emotional, social, spiritual, and economic aspects of life that may be influenced by cancer.

Having a potentially life-threatening disease often leads people to examine their lives and look for meaning in new ways. Many describe cancer as a “rock your soul” experience that leads them to “renegotiate life” and to wonder, “What do I really want to focus my time and energy on?”

Many of the now 12 million Americans who are cancer survivors find that laughter and connecting with others who’ve experienced cancer can be helpful in ways they might not have realized or imagined. One of them is this year’s Survivors Celebration keynote speaker. Larry S. Cockerel is a cancer survivor, national speaker and author. Known as the Cancer Fighting Specialist, he will be sharing his new program, “The Why Factor -Six Reasons to Keep Living and Enjoying Your Gift of Life.” This program will engage, inspire and motivate you to celebrate your journey and thrive as a survivor. All are welcome to participate in this free community-building event. Enjoy good company under the big tent, rain or shine!

The opportunity to share...

We find ourself's in so many experiences throughout life, at times the mountain seems to tall, to big to climb, so we either quit, camp or climb. With my experience with cancer I've made the choice to climb and grow so that I can share, inspire and offer hope and encouragement to everyone I meet!

Sharing parts of my book, my journey and what cancer taught me with a group at a book reading and signing. The greatest gift in life is the passion to give!
