The day after....

I'm in limbo - strangely - it's only been 4 days since I was diagnosed with cancer, had surgery the next day and then all drama has ceased.

But I bought a pink toy for the dogs :) (it was on sale)

Pain level is about a 5 /6- I'm kind of used to that with my knees, so altho a new sensation, it's very tolerable.

So what do you do?  I spent Saturday on the sofa watching stupid movies and feeling very scared and sorry for myself.  Friends called, texted, sympathy given.

Sunday - I ran my dogs and met Sally at Mellow Mushroom for lunch.

Monday - private lesson with Karen Holik - my life is intact for now.

I was scared to move, scared to run, just scared.  And I am still scared, but in between scared, I need to figure out how to negotiate a new life with cancer as a roomate.

  1. Reaching out has never been your style, and no pun intended but perhaps is even more difficult now. But you DON'T have to go through this alone; support groups are very good at what they do. If you have a friend or acquaintance who's been there, ask her where she turned. Or ask that wonderful doctor, or the next nurse who appreciates your sense of humor...
