4-7-8 breathing
keep breathing
relax, as best you can
Thank goodness it's not cancer! I am happy for that. Honestly look at your options. Ask your higher power for guidance, curl up in a ball, feel those feelings, breathe....your answer will come to you. Just don't wallow in self-pity for too long, it tends to feed the beast, but in small increments (ten minutes), you'll let go of that pressure.
I love you dearly, sweet Venus!
ps when done, get some ice cream!
