My 'anniversary of detection' is coming up in a matter of weeks - I'll be having another ultrasound (I had a mammogram a few months back so don't need that one.) Then, my anniversary BS appointment in January!
If you DO have any hobbies or favourite past times - give them a go - slowly! Build up to it. If you are able to 'keep busy' - it will help keep your mind off stuff ..... I know just how important my kayak fishing and Ukulele group has been in keeping me 'sane' during the last 11 months ..... and is a continuing part of my recovery. If I didn't have them - I'd have gone batty, I reckon!
All the best with your recovery - it does just take time tho. xx
