One of the hardest parts of life after blood cancer or transplant isn’t always the treatment.
It’s the moment you realise…
You’re not the same person you were before.
Your body feels different.
Your priorities change.
Your outlook and perspective on life shifts.
For a while I struggled with that.
I kept thinking about the life I had before MM.
But slowly I realised something important.
I wasn’t supposed to become the old version of myself again.
I was learning to become a new version of myself.
A version that:
• values time differently
• listens to their body more
• appreciates the small moments
• understands what truly matters
And the biggest step in moving forward was learning to accept and even love this new version of myself that God created!
Surviving changes you.
But change doesn’t have to mean losing who you are.
Sometimes it’s the beginning of discovering who you’re becoming and that it’s time to thrive not survive!
If you’ve been through this journey, have you felt that shift too? It’s Multiple Myeloma Awareness Month… send up a prayer for those who are in need! ♥️
