Good morning @jazzjen. Welcome to Connect. Great folks are here who will understand your “What’s next?” conundrum.

I don’t know how old you are and yet I see that aging takes it toll because we start being aware of conditions and diseases that impact our families and friends?

I tend to get out over my skis.....as my partner says. That is why mindful meditation can help you stay present in the now. We all can do whatever it takes to have a healthy lifestyle.

What recommendations have you had from your medical providers? Are you using any medications at this time?

You have come through a tough time. And so has your body. Be good to yourself now. And may you be healthy and whole. Chris

Thanks for the welcome!! I just turned 60. I was very active before my cancer diagnosis and auto immune diseases diagnosis. I have a farm and horses, cleaned houses, worked out at gym, hiked,kayaked etc etc before getting sick. now i cannot work or do much at the farm. I have an amazing support group of friends and family for which i am very grateful. But I do not want to worry them with anything else. I am on anti depressants and going to pulmonary PT. The smallest of tasks like shower, cooking,laundry exhausts me. so I sleep a lot.
