16. Now What?

Acrylic painting…

It’s hard / weird to go back to a “normal” life after a cancer diagnosis and treatment. Because I don’t know what normal is anymore.

I follow through on all my meds and treatment but I also know that it’s stage 3. As much as I try not to think about recurrence rates, it is constantly there.

Everyone with cancer lives on borrowed time. THAT is our reality.

I have a heightened sense of urgency to do many things. Maybe I always have. Perhaps the feeling will lessen after a while, maybe not.

But I do know one thing…….

If I am living on borrowed time, then I am going to spend every minute being happy, spending it only with people I love and focusing doing what I want.

Life goes on………
