Hi Karen,
Totally get where you are coming from my normal life flew out the window on the 28th May 1015. I have a mass in my chest which is sbc is has made a big home for itself in my sternum. It also has holiday homes in my spine,ribs,and lung. And so we are on the medical carousel round and round we go... I too get angry not as much now but I used to and yes its hard very hard.. I hate the new normal. It sucks.. But as you say what can we do but get up every morning and be thankful we are here. But somedays are harder than others... Sometimes I even feel selfish for being down and sad as I know there are lots of people worse off than me.. It's like we are grieving for the life we have lost whilst still trying to live that life the best we can. Crazy hey.. Its makes me sad for us that treatment will never be over. Anyway getting carried away and not helping you in any way lol... We will get there Karen we might just take the 4x4 track to get there thats all.. It's all about the trip not the destination.. Chin up we got this..
