About normas

hi my name is jay 5 years ago i was diagnosed with breast cancer and after all the usual tests i went into hospital on valentines day to have a masectomy.Everything went well and 3ks later i started my course of chemo i was very lucky and flew through the treatment as if nothing was wrong. I then had to have a 5 wk course of radiotherapy. when that was over it was back to work as if nothing had happened.Then 2 yrs ago i hurt my back at work and carried on for a year not thinking anything about it,untill last year when i could stand the pain no more. After a few trips to the doctor and mri scans i was told i had bone cancer in my lower back which is pressing on the nerves to my legs. this resulting in me having to rely on using a wheelchair. i get so mad that after everything this has taken my independence and i have to rely on others to do things for me and as time goes on i feel more of a burden to people. thank you for reading this sorry if i went on a bit.
