I’m emotionally, physically and mentally exhausted on all levels and it’s only getting worse.
Im trying to support my husband with the ongoing journey of his kidney cancer that’s spread around his body and the changes to absolutely everything in our lives. He’s doing well considering everything but it takes it out of him completely, he’s forgetful and limited in activity which is a huge thing for him to learn to pace and adapt to his capabilities nowboth just being in our 40s).
This does mean the state of our home where we both work from, the care of our animals, decisions and driving etc falls to me.
I have my own struggles and worries with my own fibromyalgia, vitamin D deficiency, mental health, perimenopause and coming to terms with being neurodivergent… i’m so so exhausted and there’s no easy fix. Not for my husband, not for me, not for our lives and it feels so hopeless. My body doesn’t feel ok, this is the worst i’ve ever been and I feel there’s no one able to listen or change it for me and i’m going insane while vanishing and i’ll have to keep going until i burnout completely
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
