Not sure what I’d do. One thing I’d need to do is get rid of a lot of things in my house so someone else wouldn’t have to do that. :-) Thanks for sharing, Aly. Hugs…
Thank you for sharing some of your story. I feel like by seeing your strength I am a brought closer to mine. As for the answer to your question, I don’t know what I’d change other than my attitude. Yes, my attitude is what I’d change. I’d release grasping on to things and outcomes and wasting so much energy on striving to be/make things perfect. I’d make more careful choices about what battles I fight. Choosing perhaps only the one or two that have some deep inexplicable meaning to me.
I always knew you were strong. I clearly didn't know the half of it. And thanks for the challenge questions. It's always good to visit/revisit what's important to you at any age.
Oh Aly, that piece is so moving, so brave of you to open up about what your life used to be like. As for your big questions, well I was diagnosed with leukaemia 20 years ago and things changed a year or so later - I left my job (my choice), my wife left me (her choice) and my 85 year old Dad died (nobody's choice).
If I could rewind the clock, I hope I would change myself - but how, that I don't know, apart from lighten up, be less self-absorbed and a heck of a lot more empathetic.

“my pain won’t kill me, but running away from it might. “ Best line ever! Well written and well said. Cheers!
