Dear @Tasia
Don’t dismiss taking the wheel. Most of us who have been through this know that being your own advocate is important. Listen to the specialists of course, they know about cancer.

Ultimately we make the decisions about what happens - and that may mean changing our minds, doing things we haven’t encompassed before, embracing, under the most unwelcome of circumstances, new opportunities. You haven’t chosen the ride, but you have some options about where it takes you. Best wishes.
