Never would I expect ANYONE to tell a cancer patient/survivor to 'get over it' and yet for the last 4 months that's exactly what I've been telling myself. So convinced that that's what people are saying when they hear the news that I seem to have taught that self talk to myself. It's destroying me.
Having life turned upside down with the news of being diagnosed with a second cancer still has me grasping for breath at times. Having emotions opposite of what I think I should have (possibly control issues over my own emotions) has been a huge learning curve and I'm finally getting that its okay to not be instantly fixed. Am I making any sense?!
I had my first official gynaecologist cancer check up. So we know my schedule and yes, another 5 years ahead of me being checked for signs that cancer isn't back. Regime will be every 3 months for 2 years then every 6 months for 3 years then I'm clear. I'll also have a base ultra sound done in a couple weeks and then again in a years time. What fun!!
I keep telling Les that for a person with the least amount of body parts I certainly get checked out the most!!! Truly, I'm glad that I have doctors that take such good care of me.
