Hi there @Sweetpetal...welcome to the group that nobody ever thought they'd join. Amen to all that others have already said with such wiseness. This whole crapfest is a nightmare, but it will get easier. Once you start actively destroying this monster which is trying to destroy you, you will feel better. Better in that you are turning the tables on it, but to be truthful, also a trying business as you progress through treatment and surgery. We've been there and lived what you are now starting with, and I can assure you, we get it...we understand...and we will be your soft place to land when things get tough. We'll also be here to cheer you on with each good day and triumph that you have. So...your cuddle squad as well as your cheer squad. Sending the biggest (((hug))). Ally.
