those cancer days

Less than one minute read time.

just another wet and windy day, but wait its not just a normal day its another day i'm alive!!

Its been about 4 months now since they said the words " its back and its incurable",  at first there was shock, grief and of course the ever present pain, then there was the familys reaction, i have five grown-up kids and they all reacted differently, the eldest wanted definitive answers, the second took it upon herself to be my rock, the third was very upset, the fourth couldn't speak to me and the youngest was inconsolable. I dealt with all these in my stowick fashion. On the bad days i shy away from people but mostly i like company, i'm still at the "talk to everyone about it " stage but as i intend to live forever i will need to stop boring people with it.

Thats why this website is so important to me, i know you all understand where i am coming from, so bring on those wet and windy days, get a cuppa and chat to who ever is out there and please feel free to bore me anytime,

till next time

    Love reading how you are getting on.  We learn to enjoy every day and time is so precious.  Perhaps we are lucky in that we can really appreciate every single day.  Most people take their lives for granted, because you don't tend to think how long you have got.  When diagnosed with a terminal illness it is different.  Hopefully the good days outweigh the bad, and we all have them from time to time.

    Take very good care of yourself and try to stay strong.  With love, Clare xxxx

  • Be sure there will always be someone here on the Mac site to listen - have a good moan whenever you feel the need because no-one here will judge you or dismiss your worries.

    Best wishes,
