@Tasia sometimes there is nothing to be done but to let things wash over you. All the fear, pain, disfigurement and grief can not be avoided. You can't fight it.
You know your treatment is nearing an end and that you will take some time to recover. Some of us never fully recover. Sometimes you just have to stand in that space.

Having made the decision to start, we have to hope it's worth it. 
Hang in there. MXX
