Cancer often comes with pain in varying forms and this can be truly hard to deal with. Glynn had some nasty pain post-radiation that blindsided him, and he shares with us how this went (spoiler - not well!). He talks through the ways he didn't cope, and the ways he could have done things differently.
‘Go get your life’ is a theme on this show, but sometimes the idea of living life to some high, and values based, standard just seems so hard to do when we are in pain. We discuss what is reasonable to expect of ourselves when the pain is so strong and so much.
