The first thing I learned about cancer fatigue is that, unlike other types of tiredness, cancer fatigue cannot be resolved with rest. What’s that you say? I can’t power-nap my way out of this?!! I’ve lived a lot of my life in the fast lane. Actually, I was more like that guy in the zippy sports car that barrels through and around traffic. (Sorry.) I prided myself on being able to push through just about anything. Insane client deadlines with inherent all-nighters; no problem. Supporting 36-hour labors; I got this. Debilitating migraine headaches; meh, only down for a few hours. I resented sleep as a waste of time. It took me too long to learn
I love the voice you are giving to your mission of RE-mission. Now that I have read so much of your beautiful writing, I understand more clearly what your challenges are. What a blessing to be able to read and write for 4-8 hours a day!! Thank you Rosie. Love you❤️
I love how you played with “re-mission.” That’s perfect!
I too truly think it is a gift to have many hours for reading and writing. I also think it is what i am meant to do. I’m hearing an echo of someone kind in my background telling me “Don’t fritter away this time.” I think there is something far bigger than cancer, something far more transformative going on and I’m here for it.
