Das Ringen ist lang und schmerzhaft gewesen und es geht weiter. Ich bin jedoch zufrieden mit den Fortschritten und akzeptiere die gelegentlichen Rückschläge mit mehr Gelassenheit. Ich kann von meinem Körper nicht mehr verlangen, nach all dem was er ertragen musste. So gilt es Geduld zu haben! Ich wünsche euch schoenen Ostern.
Día de los inocentes
El 1ro de abril del 2009, hace ya un año, me diagnosticaron leucemia. Pense que era un mal chiste del día de los inocentes. Ese dia ha sido hasta ahora uno de los más horribles de mi vida...al escuchar el diagnostico se me abrió el piso y sentí caer en un abismo, me costaba respirar, y me pasaron miles preguntas por la cabeza: ¿para qué a mí? ¿Cómo será el tratamiento de quimioterapia? ¿Me sanaré? Etc, etc. Lo que si sabía es que iba a luchar, yo no quiero partir de este mundo todavía.La lucha ha sido larga y dolorosa. Y continua. Pero estoy satisfecha del progreso y acepto con más filosofía las recaídas. No puedo esperar tanto de mi cuerpo después de lo que he tenido que pasar. Así que ha tener "Paciencia"! Felices Pascuas.
April's fool
On the 1st of April, 2009, one year ago, I was diagnosed with leukemia. I thought it was a bad April's fool joke. It was one of the more horrendous days of my life ... When I heard the diagnosis, the floor was swept from under me and I felt falling into an abyss, I had trouble breathing and a thousand thoughts flew through my head: why is this happening, how will the treatment be, will I heal, etc.
The only thing I was sure of was my willingness to fight, I don,t want to leave this world yet. The fight has been long and hard, and it's not finished. But I am satisfied with my progress and accept my drawbacks with more philosophy. I cannot expect more from my body after all I have been through, so I have to be patient. Have a peaceful Easter!

It's good to look back on all you've achieved in one year. I remember last year at this time, taking pictures of flowers outside to illustrate the first posts on your blog. I got choked up as I thought of you trapped in a hospital room. I hope you will be able to enjoy this spring outside, in your own back yard, and that by next spring you can choose exactly how to enjoy the season, whether outdoors, near home, in an office or on an exotic trip. Congratulations Mariangela on the courageous fight you've been waging.
ReplyDeleteJoyeuses Pâcques Mariangela, JPK and I were speaking of those past days when we learned about this disease that hit you so suddenly. Knowing you as a courageous and strong woman we expected you'll go over it. I am glad you did and thanks you to allow a witness of your fight and a support through this blog. Gros bisous, Françoise

In good times people easily can be positive, but in the hard times, it is so difficult.
I admire you what you have been through with positiveness and philosophy.
May force be with you always. Kaori
