And then there are days...

when all you can do is sleep, cry, watch bad television and remember that no matter what you are loved.


You just have to think of all the people you have in your life, all the positive things they bring to your world.

Focus on the things you will get to do when you are better and how much more you will appreciate them because of what you're going through.

Remind yourself, that though there are hard times - horrible times - it is still time, here, with the things you love and that is precious. Chances are that you will get better and you will have lots more time.

Though there are potential losses, and big ones at that, there are ways around them and there is no use crying over what you have not yet, and may never lose.

Dont worry about the transplants or surgery or next round of chemotherapy, think of the 2 and a half weeks you get to spend with your friends and family and the iphone you intend to buy with government money.


Mum's right. I do feel a lot like Frodo. But I get little holidays. And better food. And prettier feet. And soon, an iphone.
