Hi Lisa,
There isn't much more I can say that hasn't already been said. I am new to this site and on my third round of head and neck cancer. I am married and have a 22 year old daughter but I still feel extremely alone most of the time simply because no one can relate to what I am feeling or going through. Oh they feel bad and say they are sorry that I have to go through this, but that doesn't help.

What I want to tell you though, is that I am 44 years old. I had my daughter at age 21 and raised her alone. I met my husband just over 4 years ago on an onine dating site. We will be celebrating our 3rd anniversary this November. This is the first marriage for both of us and I truly believe we are soulmates! So what I am telling you is it can happen. Never lose hope and explore your options (once you are feeling better). And any man that you find after you've been through all of this will be very special because he will accept you, even love you, in spite of all the scars, loose skin, etc. We only get better with age!!
