RE: Post Traumatic Distress

he words you share convey with absolute clarity that heaviness known only to those who have walked the path of cancer. That blend of uncertainty—waiting for test results in the middle of the night while your mind drifts to dark places is a deeply human response to a trauma that never fully fades, no matter how much time passes. Your honesty in opening up about that silent anguish, the kind that arises between a lab test and the doctor's appointment, serves as a valuable reminder to us all. It takes great courage to face that fear head-on, overcome procrastination, and commit to self-care, even when every part of you wants to put it off. I am sending you a hug filled with strength and positive energy for these weeks of waiting. May the days pass quickly, may your mind find moments of calm, and when you finally speak with your doctor, may you receive the reassuring news you deserve so you can continue enjoying this time of year in complete peace. Wishing you great strength and light on your journey. <sub>Posted via [HiveSuite](https://hivesuite.app/@arribaeltelon/xwe4gca8)</sub>
