++ Chemistry of Healing ++
Friday — Fri-nally!
Not cheugy-mummy* received a social media message from someone who claims to be an ex-colleague — Kasia — a heart-wrenching message saying she is not well and undergoing cancer treatment. Not cheugy-mummy thought her account was hacked and ignored the message. A few weeks later she realised she had Kasia’s phone number and messaged her — it turns out that Kasia was indeed reaching out…
“Behind all the appointments, scans and treatment, there was still simply me. Something inside me felt drawn to reach out and after so many years without contact, at exactly the time I needed it most, that connection returned to life. Later I discovered how deeply human connection was helping me heal. Feeling supported reminded me that I was more than a diagnosis. Every message, conversation and hug helped me carry some of the emotional weight of the journey. Medicine was helping my body, but human connection was helping to heal the parts of me that medicine could not reach. Kasia”
When we think of healing, we often imagine wounds closing, bones knitting together, or the disappearance of pain. Yet healing is far more profound than what we can see. It is one of the most intricate chemical processes in nature — a silent symphony of molecules, hormones, immune cells and electrical signals working in perfect synchrony to restore balance….
