To Whom It May Concern:
No one really talks about the days in between cancer treatment. We often hear about the big milestones – the last round of chemo, the clear scans – and rightly so.
But, what really goes down during the days in-between?
For me, the toughest parts of my journey weren’t physical like losing my hair and enduring chemo. It were those in-between days at home that proved to be the most challenging.
The days in-between were a constant reminder of the loss of many things that once defined my identity. They were filled with the most tears and when I often longed for the freedoms I once took for granted.
However, during the days in between treatment, I also found courage. They might not be shown in my feed, but the ‘in-between’ days are where the real transformation took place.
Breast regards,
Michelle
