Although I can't offer scientific proof, I do believe that mindset/faith/belief have enormous healing power. (Wayne Dyer often spoke about this.) And the courageous and powerful mindset reflected in this essay send strong signals that you'll emerge from this like a glorious phoenix! I'm glad that you chose to go ahead with your spa time with your daughter, and I always love seeing you in our Substack discussion group! Sending healing energy to you!
You show so much resilience and balance in what must be a frustrating and painful time, Julie. It sounds like you have good doctors. And fun family connections.
Keep walking out of those woods. I wish you good company while in there.
I especially loved these lines:
"Don’t stop the merry-go-round because one of the wooden horses got knocked down. There is an entire carousel of horses waiting."
Thank you, Tom! And I agree there is a mental component to healing. I've read and heard from many experts about this and I've seen/ experienced some proof of that myself. I love the imagery of the glorious phoenix and appreciate your faith in that for me!

Thank you, Jeanette! I appreciate your support through this journey. I'm doing the best I can with the resources available.
Oh dear Julie - what a ride! (Merry go round reference intended!) You are indeed resilient.
