I’m doing ok thanks, been very up & down lately but I’m trying my best to keep myself together (I feel like I’m falling apart tho!) I’m 32, my family has and is being taken by so many different forms of cancer it’s hard to keep up and I lost my partner to covid just under a year ago....he was 3 months shy of his 41st. We had so many exciting life plans that we meticulously and very very carefully planned on achieving together. I find this very hard to believe at the moment but somewhere amongst all this horrible stuff, the darkest parts of life that there is (hopefully) some good still in the world, things to experience, smile and even laugh.
Oh dear,my heart goes out to u,I'm sorry for ur loss,yeah I think I know what u saying about being all.over the place,cancer is more than just the physical stuff,the mind can take a battering, I'm 65 and was diagnosed with prostate cancer 3 yrs ago,it has since spread to my para aortic node,its uncurable,its in my Lymph nodes,so it has access to all my vital organs,I've been for a ct and bone scan,so I,ll find out Fri if its spread to my bones or anywhere else,I hope u can keep ur spirits up best u can,I,ll say a prayer for John x
