Good Morning, Personally for me  I just try to keep busy as being busy is a distraction and stops me being fixated on my illness. which is vaginal cancer stage 4b. 

I lack concentration and memory is not as it was and am very tired  since having chemotherapy. I am currently on  immunotherapy  therefore I will  probably retire from my wor k in admin. I'm actually of retirement age anyway  and have thoroughly enjoyed being off work, been working for 50 years now. 

I couldn't get through this  without the support from my family but I know not everyone has someone,  so If there's a Maggie's centre near you it will be a great comfort and help especially if your stru ggling  physically and/or mentally. They have services you can access  in the  centre and advisors  in almost every field. When I'm low mood I go and before I sit down there's someone there to chat to, and free tea coffee and biscuits! I always feel comforted when I leave. Alternatively you can sit and read quietly,  it's your choice.

I would really like to hear from anyone who has/ had  vaginal cancer, I'm interested in knowing how this progresses, basically what to expect. I am aware this is a rare type of cancer but if anyone knows symptoms of what I should be prepared for or can advise   I'd be very grateful. 

I would love to hear from anyone
