How long is the average recovery time?

No two people will have the same recovery. And this also really depends on what you are recovering from and how invested you are in recovering. Back in June I had a tumor removed from my left breast, luckily, we caught it early enough to wore chemo was not necessary. I was well prepared (or so I thought) for the surgery. But the day of, I was exhausted and drained which is expected after surgery. But this lasted for weeks. And after the first week mark, I was able to remove my bandages. The shock I experienced could not be put into words. The mass that was removed left a large crater into my skin. I kid you not but I cried for hours in the shower. I felt terrible and disgusted. I was in physical and emotional pain. Two weeks pass and the crater begins to fill (as I was told it would) but the incision itself did not. My stiches in my body did not dissolve, so they had to be removed. Which was really painful. Up to this day, I know longer experience physical pain and less emotional (as I still think of this event). I am impressed with results and even more impressed by the fact that I recovered well.

Recovery time is personal to each person. Time is not the most important factor in recovery, learning, growing, changing, and putting the changes into practice as part of the day is what matters. Seeking truth through self examination and using your truth to move forward one step at a time, one day at a time is all part of recovery. Recovery comes when you live your truth for your highest good. When you focus on the journey, and find peace and progress in the smallest steps time doesn’t matter. We are born perfectly incomplete and we are meant to live and learn… a lifetime journey.
