I suffer with health anxiety but I have done so much work the last 5 years and I am in such a good place. I had my second child 8 weeks ago. My son is 5 - post natally this was the trigger for me seeking help for my anxiety as I was not coping. I had such fear it would spike again this time post partum but thankfully I am thriving. Why am I writing you ask?
my dad had an MRI of his liver which showed up multiple lesions and is now undergoing further tests but they believe it is cancer and the secondary site. I feel I am being realistic and practical but my heart is breaking for my parents. I just burst in to tears from time to time. I’m trying to stay strong so my 5 year old doesn’t see my crying all the time. I think I know all the tools I need to use to deal with this but guess just looking for some reassurance. I’m home and know I need to get out for a long walk in the sun because staying in will not be good.
