This is so true
I often hear people tell me I'm strong. I don't feel like that's true. I'm surviving. It's either I give up or I fight. But I'm not strong. A friend shared this on FB this morning and it says it perfectly.
Update after a long time
How are you doing? Simple question, but as someone with cancer, its sometimes a difficult question to answer. Do you want a simple answer, or the whole answer? I've struggled with the answer recently. I normally say "Fine" or "Great" or something along those lines. But you know what? I'm not really fine or great. I've been meaning to write an update for a month or so, and I know there are lots of family and friends that have been looking for one. This is going to be a long read, so settle in, maybe grab a tissue... I'm not going to lie. It's been tough. My CA 125 number was climbing even before finishing the previous treatment cycle, so that's not a surprise. But it continues to climb, and thats what I hate. I hate having that number bigger and bigger every time they draw blood. Here are the 10 most recent CA 125 counts (remember normal range is 0-38.1): Sept 23 - 274 Sept 3 - 194 Aug 12 - 133 Jun 28 - 78,1 Jun 6 - 73.3 May 14 - 57....
