Hi Eileen, Come up with a plan. What are your plans for when you are done with treatment? Will you write a book and tell your story? While you are recovering, how will you communicate? et that dry erase board, that pad in your purse....prepare with a plan of action. Tell your friends what you are looking forward to doing, and let them plan it so it happens. Plan that special weekend away trip to look forward to. Write letters to the ones you love most in this world with your deep feelings of gratitude.
You have to be the Lion and take control of what you can control. Don't let the anger and frustration eat away at you further. Frankly, it's a skill and doesn't come easily so work on it every day. I wish you strength and courage.
