Dear Life, January 2023: I was diagnosed with Endometrial Cancer requiring immediate surgery, a radical hysterectomy. Totally separate from Lymphoma diagnosed in Jan 2020. February: Pre- and post- surgery. I slept three weeks. Quarantined. March: Recovering from surgery continues as I resume treatments for Lymphoma. Soft cotton bedding and pillows wrap me in comfort as my unconscious does all the work in my dreams while I sleep. Still clocking in 10-12 hours of snoozing. My body is rejuvenating. I feel new energy and strength. I am that puff of cloud floating in a promising blue sky. Do I dare wake from this dream? Spring is near.
Yours Truly, Pamela Rose
