1. Person who understands what I am going through (they have had a personal experience)
2. Person most likely to lift my spirits
3. Person whom I can talk to about anything
4. Person whom I wish I could talk to more
We all need someone to just listen and be there for us. For me a good cry is not a good cry unless I have someone beside me that is hugging me saying I understand. I don't feel as much relief if I cry alone. We work to be strong but not every day do we have that kind of stamina so be open enough to share your burden with someone that will help you through this. Now that list could be someone from your medical team or it could be someone you know but reach out when you feel you are dragging and let them help you carry the load. Together you can make it a better day! S
