On a sadder note, I had to call in to the hospital this afternoon for a quick appointment with my medical oncologist ( I also have a surgical one) and he told me that he and my other specialist will complete my forms for my life insurance and superannuation next week if I want to lodge them. I know that to be eligible they both have to agree and sign off that they believe my life expectancy is under 24 months. That was a slap in the face... I’m relieved that this will take any financial pressure off if I find I can’t work but it was not what I expected at the end of an already long, crappy week. Others in my Facebook group have had to approach the docs about their forms so it doesn’t feel good that mine is offering them freely.
Sorry I vent so much on here. It’s become a running commentary of my life..

It sounds to me that your doctors are very compassionate and trying to make this as manageable for you as possible.
Not all doctors, even oncologists are that thoughtful. I am glad you are not having to ask for that kind of paperwork....no one should have to. s

Sending so much love. Loads of hugs. More chocolate biscuits. Teddybears dunked in tea sounds good to me about now. ❤️❤️

Signing up for 24 hours drink and drug free. 12:02pm in Jacksonville, Florida.
Congratulations to all celebrating milestones today
INCLUDING ME!! 13 YEARS!!

This month has been filled with joy and sadness. 2 sponsees celebrated annual milestones and one sponsee loss her battle to this disease. I am grateful for my sobriety and the life I have today and the opportunity to continue to grow and be of service. Thank you to all who travel this journey with me. I could not do this on my own. My sponsor gave me HER 13 year medallion and a sponsee gave me a ring made from a medallion.
