Hi there ..

So sorry that your going through so much ... l can't imagine what your oncologist was thinking telling you to be " positive"  when he should be getting you in touch with those who could help you through .. every one I know going through cancer diagnoses have had a period of getting our heads around things ..

I know I went into a pretty dark place for a while where I got out all those feelings I couldn't understand going through my head .. then on comming out, I'd let others in, and I came to the conclusion I'd take one day at a time.. and that I'd pack as much into whatever time I had ... and take each day as a bonus... 

My thoughts are no one is promised tomorrow... any one can be taken ... but it took me a time to get there ...

Have you been given any more info .. is there a treatment you could have .. have you support from family and friends .. reach out to anyone who may help support you .. you can call McMillan to chat to a nurse or on here there are numbers to chat to one of these nurses ...

Please be kind to yourself ... you are not alone ... so many on here have walked that path or cared for someone too .. sending you a vertual hug... Chrissie x
