    • About Me

      I was diagnosed with papillary thyroid cancer in feb and what can I say...This and two small children to care for, this is a lot to deal with and I want people to talk to who share this similarity. I wish it was under better circumstances, but this is where at least when someone says they understand, they really do :)

      Honey, the regular ups and downs of family life is hard enough without cancer. It is so overwhelming and you are in a very stressful place right now. You seek whatever support works for you to get well. There is so much out there and maybe therapy is the answer. Also, yoga or meditation, time alone to just work through your feelings. I can't wait to be able to take walks again in beautiful quiet places to feel connected to living things again. Winter seems so dead and it is hard to be sick this time of year. Keep on hanging in there because you will get better. You are not alone.

      From Nanette February 20, 2008

      I'm so sorry you are having problems coping. It sounds like you need friends to support you. It is hard for anyone to understand the feelings you are having unless one has been there. There were days when I did not even like myself and just wanted to escape from everyone and everything. You will get through this though when the Dr. gets your medication levelled out. It just takes time and we want it to happen "now". I'm available if you want to talk. I had several close friends, as well as my husband, who all got an earful.
