Looks like we were raised the same way. I was always told to appreciate what I have and all the things you mentioned above. It's a good way by the way and many kids should experience what it means to lose what they have as they grow up having everything and can appreciate nothing.
I'm so sorry to read about what you have been through. That must have been terrible and covid made it even more terrible. Are you ok now? Do you still need treatment? I hope not.
Life teaches us how to appreciate what we have.
Luckily I'm fine and I don't need any extra treatment 😀. Thanks for asking.
