hi jacqui,
you have expressed yourself honestly, it is ok to feel the way you do and be scared of cancer coming back, plus maybe feeling a little lost.. like " where to now, and feeling alone" now active treatment is finished. you have been through an ordeal, that will " never be over, " as kate says.
maybe you could have a little celebration,( or a big celebration), or go to a retreat for a few days.
maybe spend some time in a quiet, reflective place like by the ocean, or in a leafy green park, by a pond, or on a mountain top. etc.
life HAS changed and you are not be the same as you were, mentally, physically, or spiritually.
it is definitely an ordeal to go through, so give yourself a pat on the back for making it so far, and cross your fingers all goes ok from this time on. take some time to adjust to the new changes. learning to live in the " now" and accepting reality, has been a lesson i had to learn since my BC diagnosis.
could you take some time off to visit your partner in the UK, for a small holiday perhaps? the answers will come to you. all the best, kathy.
