I asked myself the question (your central one) and was actually surprised to hear myself think I’m virtually exactly where I want to be, but without the cancer and associated complications! A very valuable question nonetheless.
Angela, the fact that you asked the question and your honest answer was "yes, this is where I want to be" is it. That's rare. Most can't say that. And naming the cancer as the thing that doesn't belong, not the life you've built around it, says a lot about who you are. Thank you for sharing this part of yourself and naming it. Hugs my new friend :-)
