โI'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.โ
โIf 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.โ
โReading this late at night? I've been there. I was right where you are not that long ago, about a year. For me it was bucket list or not. I laugh properly again.โ
โTo 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.โ
