Wow. You are a REALLY FREAKING GOOD writer. Never ceases to astound me how many talented people exist in the world, just doing their thing with no spotlight. Your humor shines through so much, even with all the hard things you’re going through. As someone who also grew up in a family with a “this sucks so let’s make jokes about it” mentality, I really loved seeing that. On a side note, I’ve wondered for years now if I might have fibromyalgia, the fact that I have literally every common symptom on the chart you shared did not shift that idea. Isn’t life fun? 😝 Wishing you healing and a lot of peace for this journey you’re on.

Sophie, you’re so generous in praise! Thank you so much. It has been a hard journey but the humour lightens the load - and studies show it lessens the side effects of chemo. Yeah, they did a study on laughter and chemo 😉 I hope you’re able to figure out if you have FM. If you ever want to chat I’m here.
