Hi I’m Tina I have been diagnosed with la rare lung cancer what can’t be cured I feel like giving up sometimes any ideas on how to get passed these times?
I'm really sorry to hear you've been diagnosed with a rare type of lung cancer that can't be cured. I can't begin to imagine how you must have felt when you were told this but I'm glad you've reached out to us as so many of our members have contended with similar thoughts and feelings, so you are not alone, and hopefully it won't be long until some of them stop by to share their support and advice.
I hope this section of our website that explores how cancer can make you feel will reassure you that the range of emotions you may be experiencing is completely normal but if it would help to talk to someone about this then don't hesitate to give one of our cancer nurses a call on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They are very understanding and will do all they can to support you.
We also have some guidance on managing your emotions that I hope you'll find useful but quite a lot of our members found counselling really helped them come to terms with their cancer so if this is something you would like to pursue, do have a look at the information I've included.
I hope some of these suggestions will help Tina and that with us by your side you will feel able to face the journey that lies ahead.
