Support groups

Cycle 5, Day 7

I haven't felt as good as I have this week in a long time. Having energy is nice, and not as common as it used to be, but what's usually missing is the focus to be able to do anything, and the ability to take joy from activities.

With the help of the cancer centre social worker, I've got what I need to join support groups by and for cancer patients. I've even got a good lead on some groups that are all young people (I'm still a young person in cancer circles, apparently), which I'm really hoping can help with the social isolation that my immune system and the coming winter force on me.

This is actually from Monday, but it was a pretty uneventful day.
