Rust - Peace


NL
Op gezondheidsvlak lijkt het wel of het verhaal verteld is en er geen extra woorden meer zijn wat betreft mijn evolutie. Er worden geen behandelingen meer ingepland (want die helpen niet meer) en er worden ook geen scans meer gepland (want de symptomen die zullen opduiken op een bepaald moment zullen opgevangen worden in palliatieve thuiszorg). Wat een surreële situatie... en toch-reëel... Sommigen proberen me op te peppen met 'mirakelhoop' ...

Voorlopig is er nog ruimte voor genot - ik geniet dan ook voor de volle 200% van Johan, familie, vrienden en heb ook weer verloren gegane passies erbij gehaald (zingen, ...).
Mijn zieltje voelt zich gelukkig, gegeven de omstandigheden.

As far as health situation is concerned, it seems as if the whole story is told and no extra words are left. No extra treatements are planned (as they won't help anymore) and no scans are planned (as the symptoms that will appear at a certain moment will be taken care of in palliative home care). What a surreal situation, and yet real... Some people try to chear me up with 'miracle hope'...
At the moment, I can still enjoy - so I enjoy for the full 200% singing, Johan, family, friends, ... My soul feels happy, given the circumstances.

Dear Gwenda,
Wonderful to hear that you can spend time with Johan and enjoy those moments together as much as you describe. We obviously can hardly imagine the surrealistic situation of this period. But peace with your life and environment is something I do wish you with all my heart.
We indeed think about you very much. Personally and indeed professionally. Warm wishes. Karin.

Dear Gwenda,
It has been a while since we spoke.
When I read your story I realize what a tremendously strong woman you are.
I'm wondering should I tell you not to give up or to have peace with your situation. These are probably two components that are typical for your character. Your professionalism and drive always did strike me. At the same time I am not surprised that you look for peace in piano and song...Be embraced by your soulmates.
With eternal respect; Lucien
