Fatigue after cancer is TOTALLY NORMAL.  It can take up to two years to recover from cancer treatment (let alone the long term impact of surgery etc.), so don't beat yourself up about it!  Small steps are the way forward.

A powerful blog from Ruthie🤗@BrainCancerBabe braincancerbabe.com/2021/10/… 'The pain #cancer causes is immeasurable Not only does it cause physical pain, but also mental emotional & spiritual pain Not only does the patient experience this pain, it spreads to the patient’s loved ones'

Thank you bunches, Betty! Not enough attention is given to the permanent damage, chronic pain, and side effects for those who’ve “survived” the cancer nightmare. I never thought about the importance of quality of life until mine dramatically decreased. #Cancer
