@livingasasurvivor: Some people get offended when you can’t show up for them, while you’re fighting the hardest battle of your life just to show up for yourself. Sometimes, you physically don’t have the capacity to be there for yourself, let alone support anyone else. It’s not that you don’t care; it’s that you’re mentally, physically and emotionally exhausted, trying to survive something that’s taking everything out of you. When simply getting through the day takes all your strength, you shouldn’t have to explain why you have nothing left to give. Sometimes survival has to come first. And if someone can’t understand that when you’re at your lowest, maybe they need reminding that the world doesn’t revolve around their needs. Give people grace. You never know what it’s costing them just to keep going. 🖤 #survival #cancerwarrior #ovariancancer #bekind
