Cancer Support

As my mother phrased it, I'm "feeling my own mortality". And that's true.

I don't know whether I have 6 months or 6 years, but I haven't yet felt this way and I feel like it's accelerating - sleep more, eat little, regular full days are difficult.

I mean, we never know, but maybe we sense? I know animals can do this, and also detect when others are ailing (I've seen this when one of my dogs was dying - invariably the other dogs were very respectful of the sick one. Hard to explain to non-dog owners (no idea what other animals might do the same - haven't observed them). I also find that when I am very sick, my pets come to me to seemingly comfort me, being close, lick repeatedly, etc. Dogs are great (I won't compare them to cats since I'm highly allergic to cats and therefore don't have any).
