Wow that's encouraging to hear - pushing yourself actually motivates you and makes you feel more energetic!! Well I hope that happens for me soon.
@Deanne I absolutely agree we each have our very own journey with bc just as we have different types, in varying places and to hugely varied degrees, so are our ages, previous health, treatments and support. This forum is gr8 for getting other people's experiences, sharing good (& bad) news, ideas, thoughts and interest items and whilst some people are able to work and do treatment other people can barely get out of bed, each person is doing the best they can, with the tools they have at any given time. Some days I feel hyped after a bit of exercise, I fortunately felt well through radiation and did not nap or need to, but now 3 months after treatment stopped and 3 months in hormone therapy, the cancers supposedly gone and I feel tired and lethargic, but I'm making myself go to exercise classes twice or 3 times a week.
Some days I just want to have brekkie & go back to sleep till I need to eat it toilet.
Everyone's journey begins with one step. How do you walk 1000 miles, one step at a time. Some days it's a minute at a time, others an hour and some days are good.
But even on the days I do nothing I'm still doing the best I can. And I'm told that's exactly what I need to do at that very time.
We are all different and we are all okay. And we are exactly where we're meant to be right now. Relax more and do whatever it takes to make yourself feel better at the time.
You are okay exactly as and where you are.
