I am a brain cancer survivor living life after emergency-mode. I’ve gone through everything you hear about, finding out you have cancer, surgery, treatment, making plans, getting help, being unconscious, and so on. I may refer back to that... Shit, it may COME back to that! But for now, I’d like to talk about life AFTER the emergency mode that brain cancer brings. I’d like to talk about normal, regular, everyday life when part of your brain is gone and the rest takes over. I’d like to talk about normal, regular, everyday life when your perspective changes. I’d like to talk about normal, regular, everyday life when others see you differently and they either get you or they don’t. I’ve spent over three and a half years holding this in, mainly because I didn’t want to be labeled as having brain cancer. Many people fail to understand what that label brings. It’s not the same as denial- think about that. However, after all this time, I realize that holding onto it feels like cancer. I didn’t chose cancer but I had chosen to hold onto what felt like cancer. Not any more. So here it goes. I hope you get something good out of it, my brain cancer freeish, everyday life perspective.

Thank you! I did and it was empty but that gives me something to look for if any more problems arise. Thanks again!

If you write a response and it doesn’t post, usually I log out of my account and log back in and it works. Hope it helps.

Thank you! I did restart both my phone and my computer and it didn’t change the way I was trying to comment before- just right on the page which I’ve done in the past. I’m now going through the comment notification “reply” and it’s working. Sometimes I get brain freezes and it’s possible that was one of them. I tried to respond to your comment late last night and again this morning. Maybe it was good that they didn’t go through because I’m feeling my answer shift a bit. Let’s hope third time is a charm! I’ll get back with you on that one later tonight- I have to head out for a bit. Thanks so much for your help and patience!
