Everybody is not a victim.
How could you fear a dearth? Have not mankind tho' slain by millions, millions left behind?
Me, personally, Michael Rooker - I'm not a good victim.
Cancer has changed, and so have I. Life goes on, even becomes normal again. I refused to let cancer wreck my party. There are just too many cool things to do and plan and live for.
It seems everybody has been somehow affected by cancer, either through a relative or a close friend or somewhere, and they know how devastating cancer can be. And they see me, and I refuse to let it affect how I live and what I do.
That's what defines 'Survivor': it's the ultimate test of who you are.
I'm not interested in playing the victim. I like stories about survivors.
You can be a victim of cancer, or a survivor of cancer. It's a mindset.
