Just Keep Going

I am now three weeks past my surgery. I know that because today I got the first bill (of what I am sure will be many) for the second cancer surgery. First, I am extremely grateful for a job that offers me insurance. Second, how do people without insurance cope? Wow. Anyway... I am back to work. By mid-day, I am exhausted but you know, you just keep going. I pace myself a bit. I time my meds to get the greatest result. I try to smile my way thought it. We bought a home last week. Because you know you just keep going. My mom will be living with us soon. The kids need space for growing up and friends and life. I continue to walk every morning with increasing mileage in readiness for a half marathon in October. I just keep going step by step - no speed but endurance and me we are pals. I'll be working with my oncologist soon on next steps relative to my cancer treatment. People keep asking what's next? I do not know. I just keep going. And I am really grateful that is the case.
