As described in a previous post, I had a rough and exhausted start to the week and so the rest of it was pretty much my thinking, "Put one foot in front of the other!". Not only was I able to do that but I got more accomplished than I had planned! Lol! Don't me ask me how other than my Guardian Angel was watching over me!
One of the other things I had to do was fill out some paperwork that asked a lot of medical questions, including a list of every day activities and wether I could do them or not. Like cook or dress myself or sit up. Things that believe it or not I had to mark as "No" three years ago. And as I looked at the list one evening after work I had to shake my head to keep my eyes open. There was a section allowing me to expand on some of my answers and I thought in my head, "I am so exhausted after my day that I struggle to keep my eyes focused. But I can honestly say that no matter how tired I am at the end of the day, I got through the day!".
I left work on Friday so tired I felt sick. But after a rest I was able to get up and feel ok again. I made it through! I don't see another week to be as rough as this one any time soon. But if it comes to it, I know I can do it. I know I can make it through.
After 15 years of trying to finish my undergrad, I spent the week before finals in and out of the ER. During finals I was diagnosed with Endometrial Cancer. I graduated Magna Cum Laude the next weekend from Western Michigan University. I am now blogging about my experiences of fighting cancer & living life after in hopes of being able to help others.
