Chemo Brain. I've succumbed.

Hi there marg. I’m hearing you....... I’m an endorsed enrollled nurse and have been trying to complete my degree as well over the past couple years but have deferred due to everything that’s gone on with us over the past couple years. I work fine no issues there but the concentration needed for the assignments is just mind boggling and I packed it in earlier in the year too.  The academic writing is just too much for my post chemo brain to manage. If you told me to write 2000 words on the heart .... no issues there but uni papers are just so bloody cryptic and confusing so don’t worry your not alone. Going to try and give my advanced diploma a crack through TAFE instead as it’s more work placed based assessment. The new normal definately gives me the shits too. And I totally get your chemo argument for sure and the financial stuff as well. It all fucking sucks for sure. People who haven’t been through what we have would say we should be grateful to be alive.... and of course we all bloody are... but the rest of it is just fucked Sometimes hey. Margie xx
