Accepting (cancer) with ease and grace.
Anthony was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and received a transplant recently (so, we couldn't hug 😢....yet).
Thank you, Anthony for sharing a poignant message: "to accept everything with ease and grace: not to react, not to be bothered or disturbed by things, but simply to accept with ease and grace."
“My goal and my sole objective through the treatment was just to develop a clear mind. I wasn't focused on an outcome. I couldn't focus on whether I'm going to live or die or how well I will be after the treatment the only goal I had was to have a clear mind. So, no matter what the outcome would be, I would be at peace. So, I just kept that clear minds thinking all the way through and still have it. It keeps me rooted to the ground.”
There is such strength in that perspective.
Not clinging. Not resisting. Just grounding in clarity and peace.
May we all learn to accept with ease and grace.
PS: Thank you also to James, his partner and my love to all the career out there. We couldn't go through it without your support. Hope you are looking after yourself too. Big hugs to all the carers ❤️
PPS: Does anyone on my cancer circle have a similar experience as Anthony? We'd love to connect.
Love and hugs,
Nat ❤️🤗
