A New Life At The New Year !

What has happened

Much has happened since I was diagnosed rectal cancer in October 2020. I started off with chemotherapy, then went through high dose radiation both aimed at shrinking my tumor. Step 3 was the surgery to remove my rectum then 3 months later another surgery to close my stoma.

Each step requires decision to be made, which I always wondered if I had made the right ones. I went through days of low energy and appetite, continuous weight loss, surgical pain, scans with bad news and scans with good news. I noted changes and damages to my body from those “treatments”. In the meantime, I picked up information and knowledge on healing, diet, nutrition, stress management, lifestyle changes, and more.

I am learning every day.

My sincere thanks

I have been so grateful to have so many angels around me, offering medical, spiritual and work supports.

• Jan helps me with lymphatic drainage and keeps filling me in information with exercising and nutrition.

Going forward

As I turned 60 few months ago, I celebrated my sixtieth by adopting a complete different lifestyle, and I eat differently. While things seem going fine, I don’t stop here but keep exploring and changing so as to make a better life ahead.

It took me a long while to try to make this e-blog working. Thanks to my princess (Heidi my daughter) who has helped with her IT expertise.

Happy New Year! I wish everyone and myself good health and a much much happier 2022.
