Ok so we are made up of a lot of amazing things. It's truly a miracle.
The body is able to heal. It's made that way. The first cancer battle I was only 24 so I just kept on working and doing everything possible. Maybe this was also to keep me busy so I wasn't thinking, the second time wow what a blow that was 43. I decided that I would rest lots. No work just healing. The best healing for me was just sleep. If I was tired. That was it. I would take a nap. Sometimes I was in and out of bed all day. That's ok that's my way of helping my body to heal. But that can take its toll as well, not leaving the house for me I figured would be deadly. So I made a pact with myself. Every day I will leave the house even if it's only 10 minutes. A walk to the corner store, a sit on the beach or catching up with friends, I tried every week to get out for a lunch. New Year's Eve everyone was excited to go out as we always do. Me I was like who cares this year. But you know what I appeared at the club to meet the girls for 2 hours to cheers in the new year, I was so exhausted when I got home. But that's ok I did it.
It's just these little things to make me feel as normal as possible.
What can I say it worked for me.
Sleep is the greatest healer. Your body repairs and gets strength from sleep.
Take care of you. But do what you know is right for you. It's probably different for all of us. But you know what. I love my sleep, hey go without sleep for a day and see what your body does to pay you back.
Ouchhhhhhh! It will pay you back.
Have a great day and stay well. Happy sleeping.
