Maintenance is underway! The first couple weeks include daily cranial radiation treatments, which were scary at first, but easy peasy now. 3 more to go and we can add that to the list of things we don’t have to worry about anymore!
Transitioning back to “normal” life and outpatient treatment involves some challenges for each of us, but overall we are all still just so happy to be home together consistently again!
Brooke is gradually giving up her post as cancer princess and getting used to sharing, going along with what other people want to do once in a while, and not getting prizes for EVERY single thing she does.
Aidan is still finding his groove at school, but he seems much happier and less stressed than he was a couple of months ago, and he is getting more understanding from the educators at his school too, thanks to some really wonderful intervention by his amazing therapist!
And I’m trying to re-enter the world little by little. There is still so much to manage, but I’m starting to feel a little less depleted, find more time for myself, catch up with friends when I can, and even beginning to think about when and how to revive my coaching practice! It’s pretty exciting to even be able to think about such things!
