As your friend in the article and fellow sarcoma traveler i have decided similarly to not live as a "cancer patient". I will not put plans on hold awaiting scan results such as coming to Amsterdam this fall and getting together. I am actually starting to like the new diagnosis "atypical neoplasm of unknown biological potential. " in layman's terms we don't know what the hell it is or what it will do. So I'm going to stop living my life waiting for the other shoe to drop. Re your current living situation. I believe you are where you are with your aging parents because that is where the universe needs you to be. Maybe it's for their sakes but maybe it's for yours as well. Rather than beating your wings against the glass to no avail use that energy to fly purposefully towards a goal. Find private space within rather than without. Yoga has been my salvation muddling through the political turmoil surrounding me and the overwhelming fear I have for my transgender child who already struggles with autism and mental health issues. He is being treated as a nonperson by my government now making it illegal to change gender or identify as nonvbinsryy on government documents and provoking physical attacks by making it illegal to use a restroom that aligns with his outward appearance but not his chromosomes.
Ooofff so much in this. Rich in truth, triggers and hopefully somewhere a little triumph for both of us. As I shared with you earlier today, the orange man made me cry. And it was because of his gender cruelty. Then there are the rogue cells that leave us in perpetual limbo. I have just updated my bio here and removed the cancer. Lost for now, but I will find my way. In the meantime I will embrace your words… that I am (and always will be) am exactly where I am meant to be 🙏💫❤️
