Repeat after me: Make time for your wellness

Repeat after me:  Make time for your wellness

Following a diagnosis of metastatic Neuroendocrine Cancer in 2010, I had no idea about outcomes.  Back, then I was focused on getting my illness fixed or patched up.  That took a few years and several procedures including 3 surgeries, plus a ton of drugs including a monthly injection. Apart from recuperation periods following those procedures, I pretty much worked as normal as possible throughout that 3 years, I thought that was part of my healing, mental and physical.  I didn’t really holiday a lot, perhaps in hindsight, that was a foolish omission. Finally, when I broke out of my illness focus, I found I was able to turn most of my attention to my wellness.

The illness is there on the back burner but until it starts to boil over, I’m plodding on with my life. That is where my focus is now, although I know that could change at short notice.  But for now, I’m happily living with a stable but incurable disease where I  holiday and keep myself fit (…for my age) by walking and cycling.

Repeat after me:  ‘If you do not make time for your wellness, you will be forced to make time for your illness’

    Living with my disease trying not to die from it, not yet anyway. Diagnosed 1997 now going for my second PRRT process first one 4 years back kept it at bay for 4 years but slight progression now so here we go again had other treatments as well but I stay fit and enjoy a normal life still working at 77 years love holidays though the insurance is a bummer.
    I enjoy your comments and articles keep up the great work you do.
