You have already received some great inspiration and help. In my case I reached out to the mental health department at the VA hospital where I was being treated. Having someone to talk to 1on1 that knew psychologically what was going on really helped in my case. And it doesn't have to be a mental health professional a pastor or very good friend will help. I found I needed someone I was not kin to or in love with. When I was going through everything I don't remember the internet, I'm sure it was there, but in my wife's recent case with breast cancer we found it best to go off-line. Too much information and so much of it is not good. It's hard to decipher the correct stuff. Your health care specialist are the BEST source for information.

PS: There is nothing like having milkshakes anytime you want them. Go for it while you can, because soon all of this will be pass and life will continue, just only without the OK for shakes! wink


15 year survivor of tonsil cancer. In 2002 I was diagnosed with Stage III squamous cell carcinoma. I had a left neck dissection, teeth removed, and 38 radiation treatments. In 2015 I received a feeding tube and in 2016 a trach, both due to radiation side effects. But I'm happy to say that life has been good to me!!
