Re: Feeling good (most of the time)

Thank you for that post. I, too, feel fairly well most of the time. I have to take naps every six or so hours because I am just soooo tired, and I have to pop a pain pill when I first wake up most mornings, but I am still here. I can go shopping and drive my car and go out to eat with my kids. I still cook dinner for my family every night, and I am so very grateful that I am able to do all those things, praise God. I get scared and depressed sometimes, especially when I think about friends we have lost here like Denise and Jessica and Courtney who had the brain mets like me. I try to keep those thoughts out of my head, but it's just too hard sometimes. When I start thinking like that I get depressed and I cry, not just for myself but for all of us. I wish this had never happened to any of us. It only lasts a while, but nobody wants to visit that place for very long! I have a lot to be grateful for, and I will continue traveling down this road looking for the positives and being grateful for what I have.
