My Cancer Journey Journal

Fun, fun, fun!

Starting my day dancing is the best exercise I’ve ever done. Even when I was fit and active, most daily exercise just felt like a requirement. Of course, I had fun activities I loved doing like mountain biking but I didn’t consider that exercise. It’s the same with the dance, I work up a sweat with out realizing I’m working out.

Must Read Introduction

I started this blog four years ago when I was 62. At that time, it was a means of tracing my health and fitness goals and titled Living With Intention. I'm happy to say that I did get fit with the help of our local gym and my fitness trainer. I did improve my diet and lost over 65 pounds. Everything was going great until last year when I was diagnosed with a return of endrometrial cancer that had metasicized to my lungs. Needless to say, my entire world changed. I'm now eight months in and my once strong, fit body is now exhausted with the least exertion. It's been an emotional and physically trying journey. So, I started this journal to not just help me but to help others who are traveling the same path and to help their loved ones to understand what the cancer patient is feeling. I've now been in both positions and I know how lost I've felt dealing with both so hopefully, I can help others avoid some of that and to know they are not alone.
