Focus on Yourself
By
{I learned}To realize that this cancer is about you, pamper yourself and indulge in sleep all you want, it’s a healing process. [I learned] that I am strong.
{My every day life changed when} I had to learn to slow down, say no when I’m too exhausted. Offer rides, try to cook and get them to eat nutritionally. Learn to accommodate your treatments and take the day off. Ask for help.
