Video Transcript: Ernie Battles Pleural Mesothelioma With Positive Attitude

I would think you have to start with....you have to tell people prayer would be a good way to go. I wouldn’t get up in the morning and sit on the couch and mood because if you get moody, you are going to make your life conditions worse. So, why make it worse? Keep what you have got and enjoy it. Because if you add on to this by getting moody about it, you add another problem to your health condition. So why add another problem to what you already hav?.  I would think that getting up in the morning and putting on a smiling face or something and go on about like you don’t have a disease. If you start walking up and down the street and you are still smiling, you're not dead. The thing to do is get up and do something. Don’t let the cancer bog you down. Wait until someday it might bog you down, but my God, if you are still moving, keep moving. Go on about like you don’t have a disease. So the thing to do is get up and do something. Keep moving and enjoy it. You know, take the life that you have going for yourself and make use of it.
