“When I first heard 'months, not years', I thought my world ended. It didn't. You'll have good days and bad days. The scanxiety is real, but it passes. Let people help you. The hospice team, your family, friends. Talk about your fears. I wish I'd done it sooner. You're not by yourself in this, even when it feels like it.”
“If you've just found this place, I was in the same place a year and a half ago. The worst part: told I have months, not years. Today I went for a walk and didn't cry once.”
“I was right where you are in 2023. I remember writing letters for my kids like it was yesterday. I picked up the guitar again. It doesn't stay this heavy. Sending love.”
“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.”
