@TerriSteve , we have strength and toughness because we have no choice.
OK, maybe that's not true. We have choices, but if we choose to take the best chance of survival, we choose the treatment. None of us signed up for this and it's fucking horrible at worst and tolerable at best. I'm sure there are a stoic few who don't have some sort of meltdown, but I'd say a good majority of us spend many hours gibbering and flopping around in circles trying to figure out a better way. There isn't one.
If you are needle phobic (welcome to my little club) ask about having a port inserted if you need chemo. It's the lesser of two evils, in my opinion, having had it done both ways. Hang in there, chick. Mxx
