So...I have booked in. I will be coming to Penny Brohen next week! Am really looking forward to it, and especially the truly whilstic approach including Body Mind Emotions AND Spirit! Too many cancer forums ban the mention of the last one of these and to me if anything that is the most important. We really are whole people and this dreadful disease effects every domain of our lives. I have learnt a lot already over the last couple of years or so about how to cope. But I still say that 28 April 2017 a tsunami hit my whole life and destroyed much in its wake. I guess the recovery period is about salvaging what can be salvaged and building some kind of life which I was going to say is "post cancer" but that makes it sound like we get to leave cancer behind us in a rear view mirror. I suppose at least for me and others of us with a chronic cancer, the correct phrase would be "with cancer". To me accepting it isnt going away despite being "in remission" and which anyway has left damage in its wake that will effect me for ever (baring some kind of miracle!) has not been easy.
Anyway I get the feeling already that this Penny Brohn course will be just the right thing for me coming at just the right time.
I kind of wish someone had told me about this before, but at the same time feel like NOW is my time and this photo makes me feel THIS is the place: pennybrohn.org.uk/services/...
