My trauma was triggered.

Two years ago today I had my 2nd of 3 foot surgeries for a severely abnormal mole. They saw cancer cells in the biopsy + could not rule out melanoma so recommended taking out a 5 mm margin around the original biopsy.

I’m so grateful for self-compassion as I told myself I was safe + that I was proud that I made it through the toughest thing I’ve ever had to endure.

Tears poured down my face as I comforted myself. I’m okay.

It's okay to be triggered.

It's okay to not be okay.

And as you said, you're okay.
