You can't even enjoy watching a movie or reading a book, it is just nothing time, completely wasted. Those are the days I can't even comprehend having to go back and do it again. I admire your strength as you are on such a long treatment plan... <br /><br />I hope you are back to good days quickly.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02364706890012512947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3479782985101649883.post-45454309886820580352009-07-06T10:40:50.730-06:002009-07-06T10:40:50.730-06:00Aww hon I'm so sorry!

At a year past chemo I'm only now getting back into things that I did before cancer. It's a good feeling. Big hugs GF, these days will pass for you!

I just told my friends that I was struggling and I asked them to just stay in touch with me - ask me for coffee or to just talk and let me cry. I think the thing that got me through that time was knowing my friends and family were there supporting me and were still my friends even though I felt crummy. <br /><br />So, know we are all there thinking about you and wishing you to have a quick upswing so that you can go back to living the life you want to live, okay? <br /><br />Take care!Deehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16345066981389467770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3479782985101649883.post-30110933282524261612009-07-05T20:24:49.158-06:002009-07-05T20:24:49.158-06:00I know those 'inert' days.

And whereas in most professions these would be considerable drawbacks, in chartered accountancy they are a positive boon.<br />Monty Python's Flying CircusJJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00589237733456653239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3479782985101649883.post-82755723407622871512009-07-05T19:50:19.352-06:002009-07-05T19:50:19.352-06:00And those are some of the worst days aren't th...And those are some of the worst days aren't they? It's not so much the discomfort from chemo & cancer, it's that our lives have become suspended. I used to think of it as a merry-go-round..everyone else could get off and carry on with their lives and I was stuck going round and round. And then there are the good days and we savour those. It's good to acknowledge those not so good days too...it's about the whole experience. Wishing you sweeter days to come! ♥Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08271529958269038071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3479782985101649883.post-45719868502846885892009-07-05T19:31:55.130-06:002009-07-05T19:31:55.130-06:00Daria...cancer and its treatment does suck the lif...Daria...cancer and its treatment does suck the life out of you.
