@kabash Hang in there my lovely, you are doing just fine & if cracking a broom on the table helps, then JUST DO IT!! We have to vent somehow. Sounds like your kids are real troopers too. The family goes through the cancer with you so its hard on all of them too. Have you go a breast care nurse yet? My nurse offered to speak to all my family to offer counselling to them also. She was more than happy to ring anyone I wanted her to, to answer any questions they may have or/& to comfort them also. Those nurses are wonderful...such a great job they do & it doesn't cost us a cent!
Despite what you may think, it sounds like you are handling it all in your stride. great to take someone with you to ALL appts as you have found out. So easy to zone out....listening is hard work when you are going to soo many appts!
Great to hear that you are doing as much exercise as you feel up to. It will actually help in more ways than you think. often we reckon we are too tired to go for a walk when a walk will actually make us feel better & also make us sleep better too. It will also make us stronger which will help us recover better & quicker.
hang in there my sweet. You are doing just fine. One step at a time & keep ticking off those boxes. love & strength to you xx
