Back at work 1 year anniversary

Hi Blod

Congratulations on your 1 year back at work anniversary. So glad that you are now on the other side of a very challenging 18 months and that things are going so well for you. You have really risen to the challenges that this horrible disease throws us all and your ability to adapt is a credit to you. It is so great to hear your positive story as it gives hope to all those just starting this journey.

Wishing you many more wonderful healthy times.

Hi Blod 

Thank you for such an uplifting and encouraging post. We all might have one life to live but it’s immensely rewarding to help others starting along this road that there really is. My team and this community shone a light into the dark of my beginnings here. Thank you fir doing the same fir those following. You don’t realise how much it means. Bravo! 

Thanks for the positive update. I'm going back to work next week. I'm an NHS staff nurse so it can be physically, mentally and emotionally challenging. I'm looking forward to it though and have learnt a lot on the 'other side' as a patient. Onwards and upwards! Xx

Good luck Puny Goose 

Hope it goes ok for you xx

hugs Hazel 

Good luck for your return.

Congratulations on your work anniversary ! This is amazing. I am also a teacher and I thought I would never be able to do what I feel so passionate about! I tried to go back teaching a few  hours only 4 weeks after my peg was taken out. Had to admit defeat at first as feeling very unwell. My body told me it was too soon ...and I listened... I thought it was time to change my life whilst still doing what I love doing (teaching). I had been thinking of starting my own tutoring business for a while even before I was diagnosed with cancer. Cancer forced me to reassess and take time out to think.  I was always incredibly busy at work, had so many responsibilities and therefore had neglected my health for so long. My body told me to stop.   I now have my own website and have started working on my own YouTube Channel . In September I started teaching online as well as face to face. This is amazing. I am just doing a few hours to give my body the time to adapt and hopefully this new life style will also enable me to spend more time travelling and "take" my pupils with me. Baby steps but loving it.

It is very hard to make sense of it all and there are some extremely difficult moments when it is almost impossible to see the light at the end of the tunnel but as Blod says keep going ! Life can be beautiful again .
