Hi Caron, thank you so much for your response to my post and for sharing your experience
It’s such an uncertain time, one day at a time definitely feels like the sensible option but my brain sometimes says otherwise.
I try to remind myself often:
One appointment at a time
One treatment at a time
One day at a time
I paused work last Friday and I am spending this last week getting my head, heart and home in order. I too am self-employed and as I’m a psychotherapist, I can’t stop and start work as and when I feel better. Financially it’s scary too. I’ve decided to take as much time off as possible to focus on me and my healing.
You may already know but MacMillan have a useful booklet called Self-Employment and Cancer.
I have found this forum so helpful and talking with volunteers from, Someone Like Me, has been great. I’ve also begun watching some of the videos on different topics available on here.
Wishing you well for your surgery on Monday. Do keep in touch.
Thank you for your well-wishes. Health and healing vibes to you🌺
