Newly diagnosed nurse

Sorry to hear that, Mary.
Hope you will recover from diverticulitis soon and get mentally stronger.
I'm also kind of in denial about my condition. This situation I'm currently in is just like a 'nightmare'.
I had a syncope episode and was hospitalised for 2 days when AC finished. There was a trolley full of cytotoxic kits and a purple bin near my hospital room door. I looked at those cytotoxic PPE and a bin and felt like those stuff belonged to another patient. I still didn't want to accept that I was one of those oncology patients.
I cannot wait for the treatment to be over, and hopefully, I can return to a 'normal' life.
You might think the same, Mary.
We will get through this chemo etc., and recover quickly so we can go back to nursing again :)
