Hi everyone, this is my first post on this site i have been reading some of the posts and have found them to be very helpful and at times comforting. I was diagnosed with cancer 5 weeks ago since the...
Blah to remaining positive!!! It is ok to feel scared and overwhelmed by all of this. And I used to want to scream when people told me to be positive. I was positive that it would hurt when I had the needles for chemo, I was positive that my hair would fall out from chemo and positive that I was not going to be positive all the time. A cancer diagnosis brings up loads of feelings, scared, angry are just a few. There is no right way to feel, so dont put any extra pressure on yourself to be positve. But yes, being positive is something that may come in time.
Things will be come clearer once you have a treatment plan.
