Mostly in a positive way. They have learned more more about being a leader in community service, not just volunteering and how important it is. They have learned about natural eating, organics, the dangers of processed food and why they should choose more healty foods, which is certainly better for them in the long run. Then are more aware of foods that they should avoid that are not healthy, more than they probably even want to know! I think they probably complain less about things or events that might have bothered them alot more before being exposed to my illness. On the other hand, my cancer scared them and I think it affected my older daughter a little more. She worries when she gets sick and is sometimes nervous that she too might get cancer.
