Man oh man… First and foremost, I’m so very glad to be reading that this was a “fake-out”. But your description of what being in remission, or cured, might look like, and does look like for you… That sounds intense. Unsettling. A small comfort. I just wish for you to be well. To be happy. To feel a sense of peace. I feel really sad that you may have felt (feel) foolish in making any announcements or giving updates. How could you know? “They” didn’t even know. 🫤. Be gentle and kind to yourself (not that I would ever be so churlish as to tell you what to do!!). And as always, hold fast. 💪 We are all better for your bright and shiny splendiferousness Sophie ⭐️☀️
I’m positive everyone is delighted by this turn of events and absolutely no one has any expectations of a tidy narrative. I think people who have experienced cancer may know the rollercoaster it can be, and the people who are experiencing it for the first time via you right now are learning how much of an emotional toll it can take in a myriad of ways. You’re brave for sharing your experience publicly and for showing up for yourself. Cancer can’t handle you! It better not come back after it’s seen how well defended you are!!
I’m sooo happy with this news, Shophie! What a relief, even though alongside with this absolute understandable emotional rollercoaster, what a relief. You’re brave, girl. Thank you for sharing with us 🩷
So happy to hear the good news. Sharing the complexities of your diagnosis process and how this affects you emotionally and mentally is really admirable. Sending a big hug.
I’m so happy for the news <3 As a girl who’s also in remission right now, I can confirm every word you wrote here, about being in this state. It’s so unpredictable, I feel like I am in a survivor mode almost all the time, because even if I am feeling good, the shadow of my illness is still visible. But we will survive. And we will live a long and healthy life. Life is full of unexpected events, but that’s okay. Watching you during my cancer treatment was so important to me, your way of living gave me hope, and watching you read inspired me to read even more, and to bring my books with me to chemo. Reading is truly healing. Thank you <3

I could weep with relief. So happy for you.

Words cannot describe how happy I am to hear your news!
You have absolutely nothing to feel “foolish” about as it’s all in the hindsight.
Just take the good news and grab it firmly and take care of yourself.
Life is unpredictable and fragile.
I am so sorry you have to go through such pain and suffering.
Sending you positive energy and healing 💛🧡❤️
Your candor is so appreciated and I am so sorry you’ve had to deal with this. Love you Sophie ❤️
