4 years ago today I finished chemotherapy for breast cancer. Chemo was a mountain I thought I would never get to the top of. It required the kind of endurance and intestinal fortitude I didn’t know I had…
At one point I had to stop looking at the mountain top because I felt like I would never get there… I shifted my focus to my feet and worked on one forward step at a time.
If you are struggling with your chemo, radiation or recovery or with any aspect of your life that seems too high to scale then I encourage you to put on some leopard pants and a sequin sweater and take one step forward. It will get you closer to your goal and before you know it you’ll be at the top of that fucking mountain doing a victory dance!!
I am currently going through chemo (1/6 done). I just wanted you to know that after being diagnosed, the experience you shared and the bravery you demonstrated through your blog really helped me find a sense of perspective and a knowing that I too can climb this mountain one step at a time! Thank you!
Sending you so much love Lori!!! You got this!!
Congratulations! I am so glad you won this victory. Hope you have many more!
I am so happy to see you healthy again! You look great!
