critical information
that we can choose
to listen to, ignore
or deny

7. Did you know?
• “You have more control over your life and
well-being that does anything or anyone
else. Through the decisions you make and

how well – and perhaps, how long – you will
live.”
– Corey, 2010 (p.1)

if and when you get sick?
