After 5 years and three bout with cancer, from my point of view, the task of "getting it together for family and friends" should really be their task to get it together for you. But I hear you as that is not what happens. Take a look at our long running thread: Don;t you hate it when for a quick glimpse of how people react. People want you to be positive and upbeat, like all the cool cancer patients in the TV shows: you know : Noble, with a new appreciation of life. strong, etc. don't you just hate it when thread Everybody just assumed that I was "a fighter and too tough to get beaten" so I really didn't have to get anything together but only smile and nod.
It is scary and feel free to worry and cry here on the board. We know just how scary this is and we all have had very very dark nights of the soul.
Survival is doable and you can beat this.
Keep the Faith
