Hi all , 1yr of immunatheropy nearly done, 1 to go and I'm finally admitting to hiding my wobbles . I'm tired of smiling and bouncing with positivity , it sounds weak I guess but I wish I could just find some where to scream in frustration at this illness that doesn't give you a copy of it's master plan . I've done such a good job of being strong and I believe now it was a mistake I should have admitted my fear . Today is a wobble, tomor I'll be smiling and joking again . If you're new on this journey ,talk and share don't bluff . Talking is not a sign of weakness talking shows strength . Big hugs to you all
and
Giggling with you xx I guess I've always looked rough lol
Hi an update on my request for councling . I've just finished my 6 councling sessions . They were really helpful ,guiding me to sort out my feelings about my journey and the implications for the future . It surprised me how it enabled me to open up, to admit my fears and to understand my reluctance to appear weak. I've been given advice on future support if I want it as well. I'm so glad I made that phone call
Hi Court I've just finished my 6 Bupa sessions and they really helped I've found an ability to talk more openly with family and yes, I'll admit ,to the team. Being strong or stubborn ? can actually hinder treatment I now realize . Thank you for the advice . Have a good weekend x
