Awaiting results after surgery - Mjheke
Hi all, I am so pleased to be provided with information for this online support community! I was diagnosed with breast cancer 12 days ago and it has all been very fast moving and overwhelming since...
Always good to know what you want and don't want. I was keen to keep working as I enjoyed my job...and I also changed it a year after diagnosis. While I enjoyed it, I had been doing it for along time. Realising with a bang that my time is finite (not because of cancer, but because it always was!) I decided to do something new when the opportunity arose, and to move to a 4 day week (at 68) to give myself more time for other things. It's not a recommended way to re-evaluate what work means and what you most want to do, but it can work. Best wishes.
