Fear can be so overwhelming, and so paralysing. I get it.

You are not alone in having fears that seem trivial to others but are very real to you.

My biggest one is fear of failure. It has stopped me in my tracks many times.

I am sad to hear that your Mom has Cancer. I too have lost many to this terrible disease. As Captain Argentina says, there are many new treatments and it is to be hoped tha these will help your Mom back to good health.

Be well. Be of good heart.
