The start of something new…
I always say that I am going to start blogging, however a lot of times I don’t find myself interesting enough to do so. Despite my negative thoughts, I feel that someone somewhere could use my information in some sort of way. I think it would be super selfish of me to keep everything to myself. Not in an arrogant way, but there were times when I felt so lost and as much as I looked for answers or reasons to why things are the way they are, I would get so frustrated and sit in misery.
Last Thanksgiving my families world got flipped upside down. The thing I feared the most and never imagined living without, happened. The change didn’t happen overnight but in less than a year. I found out my mom had glioblastoma multiforme a little after my last class at FIDM. She suffered a seizure on Thanksgiving due to a brain tumor. After her emergency brain surgery I believed that all it took was a little time and everything would soon be back to normal. Which, for a while it kind of did.
Through these blog posts I’ll be talking a little bit about our journey through this disease and things I did and learned to do in order to comfort my mom. I’ll also be giving a little bit of advice as to how to deal with something so life changing as this disease. There are so many things I wish I would have known and I would like to share with the world. Maybe your loved one doesn’t have this particular cancer, but hopefully I can help in any way! Also, if you have any questions I would love to help you by answering them. Don’t hesitate to ask!
In case you are interested… here is a link to some of my work meanwhile. Website still in the works ^.^
When we identify where we’re hurting and why, whether it’s something physical or emotional, we have the power to understand its cause and do something about it. But that means we have to be willing to let go of all the drama, comfort, and maybe even pride that accompany a sad story to make way for a better one. Before we can learn from our pain to make positive change in our lives, we have to learn how to want pain less. Once we decide to stop clinging, chasing, and controlling pain, then we have immense power to shape our worlds.
