Today just another day - uneventful - thankfully and we all still got up for breakfast!
Would love to say I came up with that phrase - but borrowed it from the MNINC site
Still Getting Up For Breakfast
Still Getting Up For Breakfast
- Published on Monday, 14 May 2012 08:10
Recently I caught up with a friend who`s been treated for a brain tumour. He has had extensive and invasive treatment and is now trying to re-build his life following the shock of his diagnosis.
Although visibly shaken by what has happened to him, I was overwhelmed to learn about his outlook on life, which is based on his view that if he’s still getting up for breakfast, he has another day to embrace and enjoy!
It truth, everybody’s journey with cancer is different. Whether, in the thick of treatment, in remission or facing life limitation, he pointed out that when coping with a cancer diagnosis, make every day count, try to do the things you most enjoy doing when you can do them and allow your body the rest it needs so you don’t over do it. Most importantly, retain your own sense of self despite the obstacles and hurdles cancer brings, and live life in accordance with your own needs.
We love the message behind still getting up for breakfast, so please try and join us to enjoy the day ahead!
I shall be getting up to eat my straawberry crunch cereal tomorrow and thinking of all of you as always! all my love Maisy x x x x x
