I wanted you to know that you are not alone. I'm new here and I was drawn to your loneliness. I too am lonely. I am a caregiver to my mother who has dementia. Had to leave my job during covid for her care. That's a whole story in itself. Maybe we can share a little of our histories with each other. Online friends? I'm no stranger to cancer or lack of familial support. I'll keep you in my prayers either way. You are valuable and worthwhile and I would like to help because helping others helps me.

I’m here for you. I finished chemo and surgery September 2020. I am 18 months in remission. Daily cardio exercise to produce endorphins helps . And I am 2 months in to the daily cold shower therapy. I do it twice a day it’s so helpful. I am just starting deep breathing exercises too. It’s in my profile in more detail.

HI Rae,

You have come to a safe and supportive Community of people going though various trials and tribulations.

Welcome.

Cheers, Midori
