From people who came through it
“To whoever needs this: This time last year I was exactly where you are. Back then it was bucket list or not. Last weekend I went to a friend's birthday and stayed till the end. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do. Hang on.”
mahmoudbus · been through facing a terminal illness“If you're at the start of this, I won't pretend it is easy. The first few months were the worst of my life. But I am writing this from the other side, and some days now I forget to be sad. My nurse specialist has been more useful than the consultant, if you have one ask for their number. Go slowly.”
Hairdresser in Bristol · been through facing a terminal illness“For anyone new to this: I've been there. For me it was a few years back. The worst part: told I have months, not years. Today I made breakfast, went to work and laughed at something. Bit by bit it comes back. Keep going, even slowly.”
Ex soldier P 81 · been through facing a terminal illness“I'm only a few months into this, but here's what I've learned so far. The paperwork can wait an hour. The fear doesn't go away, but it gets quieter if you let people help. Write things down, even if it's just a sentence. And find one small thing that makes you smile, like a game of cards or a bird at the feeder. It won't fix anything, but it makes the day easier to carry.”
