Feeling alone

Feeling alone is hard, yes I have family and friends to speak to but it's not the same as talking with someone who is going through similar   I have my bowel op date and to be honest I'm petrified . When I went for my pre op assessment  they gave me statistics  of things going wrong during the operation  and that had  sent my anxiety  through  the roof.  Nobody I know understands  as nobody has had cancer of this kind if at all  so yup I feel so alone  scared  and broken

    Hii, I'm so sorry you're feeling this way at the moment. I know how hard and lonely it can feel at times. I've felt this way too because I was diagnosed young and not many my age are. But I've met so many people here and at cancer groups and we really aren't alone, we may have different types but it's still cancer and in a way we're all in the same boat and can look out for each other ️

    I'm sorry you're feeling anxious. That's very understandable. But try to stay positive, I am sure everything will be ok :) 

    Sending you big hugs!

    Best wishes,

    Jess xx
