What brought you joy today?

Posted by northoftheborder @northoftheborder, Jun 28, 2024

If you've been living with cancer for a while, you know it's not all gloom and doom. Where did you find joy today? I'll start:

1. Working in my garden.
2. Meeting my daughter for tea.
3. Home-made pizza for dinner.
4. My spouse (always).
5. Some interesting online discussions.
6. Rereading a good novel.

These brought me joy today, and every other day since they came into my life a fortnight ago at 9 weeks old. My 2 Labradoodle puppies Benji and Lulu. Toilet training is a work in progress 😂 I’ve been over 2 years NED from stage 4 appendix cancer and these little souls have greatly enriched my life ♥️♥️

Thank you to all those who’ve hugged my pups. It’s wonderful to think they’re now 16 months old (how time has flown in a good way) and I’m still NED.

They continue to bring such great joy 🐾🥰♥️

Deciding not to mention my own advanced prostate cancer when someone told everyone at the dinner table about his very mild case 14 years ago.

Living with advanced cancer is part of who I am now, but after 4 years it's not my whole identity, and there was no need to steal his spotlight.

It feels like progress.
