Thriving to me after cancer and kidney disease and dialysis is waking and knowing the new day is full of possibilities. It may include my wonderful family who have stood beside me through thick and thin, it may include coffee with one of my many faithful friends, it will always include joy and laughter, possibly a visit to a beautiful garden, or a walk by a lake, or quiet reading on my kindle , or time in prayer thanking God for my wonderful life, it may even include a little whisper of fear of the future but always underpinned by trust in doctors who care for me and will always finish in my cosy bed tucked up next to the man I love.
