Thank you

We are truly happy for you....this journey however short is epic, scary and downright frightening. We are always pleased to hear of people who do not need us for as long as others. Importantly we are here for everyone and I am sure all of the others on here will be delighted to hear your news. 

So move on....but think of us!

Hi

It makes perfect sense that you aren't jumping for joy because you have been through all the emotions under the sun.  From truly expecting it to be cancer, you have come to terms with the fact that your life is at risk and although we all know we can't live forever - suddenly facing it, is a different thing entirely.  The fear that goes along with the word cancer is huge!  You have prepared yourself mentally for what would lie ahead and 'steeled yourself' ready to endure it. Now, you've been told that actually it's all ok and new emotions should come with that news-your brain is probably still in the 'fight or flight mode' that would get you through what you expected you would be facing.

Eventually you'll accept the good news and by the time you're ready to celebrate, it will have been forgotten by your husband, lol. (I say that' cause I went for my 3rd year annual last Thursday and my letter arrived this morning - all clear yay! and my OH hasn't even asked if I'd 'phoned yesterday, he's forgotten - I didn't 'phone 'cause I thought if it was positive I wanted to enjoy this weekend of lock down easing if it was bad news ha, ha.  He picked the post up this morning and put it on the table and left to play golf.  I'll buy a bottle of champagne and he'll probably wonder what we are celebrating tonight).  I'm not jumping for joy either - just thinking that it's another year's 'get out of jail free card' if that makes sense.

Just accept it for the moment and hopefully in a few days/weeks it will really sink in and you'll be a bit more normal - a month of Hell, just can't be blotted out that quickly can it?

Congratulations and best wishes to you

I will never forget any of you thank you from the bottom of my heart xxx

Hi ,

that is amazing news, so thrilled for you, but yes I totally get why you aren’t jumping for joy! It’s not long since you stared at the grim reaper and wondered...so like someone else said, you are still in the fight or flight sequence, and it will take time to adjust. In time you will, of course, and that smile will come back to your face.

But remember we are here, never ever feel you didn’t need us, as you did, and the group will be here another time ‘if’ you ever need it again!
