Evenings and weekends
โIf you've just found this place, eighteen months ago I was exactly where you are. Back then it was work asking when I will be back. These days I mostly feel like me. You're not on your own.โ
โI was right where you are not that long ago, about a year. It was waiting four weeks for scan results and I couldn't see past it. I can talk about it now without falling apart. It comes back slowly, like feeling in your fingers after the cold.โ
โTo whoever needs this: In 2022 I was exactly where you are. The worst part was the oncologist who talks to the screen not to me. This week I went back to my evening class. The bad days get further apart.โ
โHi, you. I was where you are nearly four years ago. Telling the kids without the word cancer at first. That was my life. This week I went back to my evening class. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. One day at a time.โ
