Hi all,
I was diganosed with rectal cancer in Feb this year I’ve been coping quite well up till now but think it’s just hitting me. I had cervical cancer 16 years ago but it was a totally different experience to the one I’m going through now.
So far I’ve had a an illiostomy Op in March due to my oncologist deciding I couldn’t have any radiotherapy treatment until a bag was fitted so I got my head round the bag and the changes that meant. I started the radio/chemo in April had 25 in total they finished last Thursday.
I think I’ve now hit a wall in as far as I’ve been really positive and because I’ve had things to focus on I’ve not really had time to think but this last couple of days I can’t stop feeling sorry for myself and I don’t want to be this miserable person hence the reason I’ve decided to log on I’m hoping that by realising Unfortunately I’m not alone I can snap myself out of feeling sorry for myself and they always say it’s good to chat.
