Hi Audrey
Yes it can be a lonely at times. I live on my own and do not have family over here. But i Do have a small group of incredibly supportive friends. Even so no one can walk in my shoes so that is where you can feel lonely at times. I have to say I used to get asked what my aha moment was when I was first diagnosed and how I had changed and what I was going to do differently. I didn't have that epiphany moment. I have since been diagnosed with secondaries recently and feeling a bit lost and alone. However I have joined a support group in the area and also getting counselling. If you are able to find a support group or a group unrelated to BC but an acitivity group or volunteer group this may help. Don't feel bad about how you are feeling there is no right or wrong way to deal with this
