 I dont know if im just thick, stupid or what. I had breast cancer 5 years ago ( i lived in surry and had my treatment in st lukes, guildford) The point is. I was almost totaly ok after the diognosis.  I just rather took it by day.  I didnt think . this was not real. And I couldnt die  from this. My sister had died from this ( or a variaction of this) To this day I dont know if im being stupid. I tried as hard as i was able to save my sister 5 years previously, everyone was against me at the time. in the end enen i knew it was hopless. But  i tried as hard as anyone ever could. I woukd sit on a train to a workshop that i thought may have helped. .In tears. no one choose to notice me. and i didnt care. all i wanted was t stop my sister dieing. I was not able to do that in the end. But im still having problems. I know my sister , dad ,mum wouldnt be happy for me to be so upset. Im still scared that my cancer will come back. I shoukd be recovering. but im not.

  • Hi Peggie,

    Have you spoken to your GP? It is quite normal to worry that your cancer might come back, but if it is starting to get you down too much you might benefit from some help. Dealing with a diagnosis and dealing with treatment often keeps us too busy to get depressed, it's afterwards that it hits many people.

    Best wishes
