1/1

You can feel a sense of hope, despite your health condition. What you hope for likely changes with time. If you have been told that a cure may not be possible, you can hope for other things. These may include comfort, peace, acceptance, even joy. Hoping may give you a sense of purpose. This, in itself, may help you feel better.

To build a sense of hope, set goals to look forward to each day. Plan something to get your mind off your situation. Some tips from others are:

  • Plan your days as you've always done.
  • Don't stop doing the things you like to do.
  • Start a new daily routine.
  • Find small things in life to look forward to each day.
  • Set dates and events to look forward to. 
Don't limit yourself. Look for reasons to hope, while staying aware of what is at hand.
