@lgray3911, give yourself permission to feel sad, mad, anxious, scared. Having a diagnosis of cancer takes away our previous complacency about longevity. Did you ever think about not living to a ripe old age before ? I know I didn't. It makes us realise that life is fragile. Treatment depletes our emotional reserves as well as the physical.
Im so glad you've come on here for support. Perhaps because as mums do we hold everything back so as not to affect our families and those around us. Always trying to be strong positive etc. well I believe that it all has to come out at some point. Perhaps your dam is not able to stem the flow so to speak, anymore.
I wish I had a magic wand or even magic words - would you consider seeing a psychologist? Talking to someone and not feeling guilty to offload to them did help me.
Mostly I just want to say "we get you". Good days. Bad days. Scared some days. Positive some days. We get you.
Much love and lots of hugs. Xxxx
