Feelings and waiting..
I like to write for my own therapy and figured here would be a good place to do it - for validation, to help others maybe, and just knowing I'm in an environment that understands this roller coaster. ...

One minute you're just getting along, minding your own business, and then bang! you're in the mincer (to quote @zoffiel). It's a not fun, to put it lightly. In my experience, generally people are caring, but do they really want to know? And how often do you go through the same story - it wears you down. But that's not fair because you do want people to understand and care. Damned if you do and damned if you don't. I started a blog to keep people updated, both on the facts of my treatment progress and how I was feeling about things. That way they could see my (almost) innermost twisted thoughts...or not.
I have been reflecting over the last few days about mindsets. The thinking goes that everyone has an inherent natural setting, be it on the positive side or the negative one, and that you will return to that mindset whether you get fired or win the lottery. I think that mine is naturally fairly positive but damn it's had some knocks over the last few years and they seem to just keep on coming, so I feel out-of-kilter most of the time.
Take care @aussiee13 and all the best for the coming week's scans.
