Re: New diagnosis shocked and devastated
Hi Terrianne thank you I do afraid to talk to my mom I’m afraid she shock and collapse In my country word cancer is very scary special my mom. Coz we don’t have any member of whole my family have cancer. Still plenty people afraid to go to dr to do check up they end up only used herbal or another alternative to fix it. I’ll talk to them maybe after my treatment I know if no fear for them and for me I just can’t do it, and still waiting my other test is sooo stressful I know right my mind just go everthing bad how if this that is crazy how the mind can manipulate self will see my GP next Tuesday and get this anxiety sort out wish me luck 🙏19Views
