Thank you for sharing your reality with us. Some of us can relate to everything you described because we’ve experienced it. I often wonder how difficult it is for those who do not have cancer, but care so much for us, they must feel so helpless. They can’t relate to the pain in the suffering, the emotional craziness that cancer brings. But yet, they love and care for us so much they’re willing to do anything to try and understand and help in anyway they can. I have found that Allowing them to help is a major part to solidify any relationship. When one is suffering and the people who love them so much must be allowed to help. I believe that this solidifies the relationship, and at the same time heals both the person suffering and the one who loves them! I know we can find ways to ask for help that would really make a difference in our life. I know I personally feel uncomfortable asking for help, but I have found the ability to do so more and more as time passes and suffering increases. You have been an incredible asset to my life, I appreciate you!
Ah, Joe- man- thank you so much for writing. I feel fortunate to sit with you for a minute, and that you share so much of what's going on. I especially love how funny the gifs etc are- cause yeah, there's a whole life and personality, family that the diagnosis is attached to - and more people would benefit if they realized or acknowledged that. And anxiety attacks -those are so horrible. But now I think I'll listen to those artists on Spotify. 🙂
