Close Colon Cancer
I was dx with colorectal cancer in May of this year. I am not sure at present what stage I am. Was originally told stage 2, more information makes me a 3 possible a 4. I had a 8 to 10 cm. tumor now after radiation and chemo is a third of that. I am waiting for surgery, in which I am going to get a colostomy bag. they can't give me a survival rate until they go in. I am in limbo right now.
Treatments
- Prayer Working / Worked
- I have a lot of people praying for me and God has blessed me in a lot of ways. I am having trouble praying for myself, I am at odds with my cancer and why God decided this is something I need to go through. I know in my heart there is a reason for everythimg and they say God doesn'y put on you more that you can deal with. I cannot deal with this. It is to much. I need help.
- 5-FU Working / Worked
- Had no phisical symptoms except being run down and tired.
- Avastin Too Soon to Tell
- Chemotherapy Too Soon to Tell

- Radiotherapy Working / Worked
- Was hard on my Bladder, I felt like I had run a marathon after they zapped me, but again all and all I handled both Fu5 and radiation very well.
- Support from Friends & Family Working / Worked
- They are great and have been the best treatment so far. But it only last while thier there. I hate being a lone to much time to think and I am dangerous when I have time to think.

Open Depression
Type: Clinical (Major) DepressionI have had clinical depression most of my life. Most of the time I can talk myself out of it. I do take meds or a med. for this and it seems to help most of the time. I do have the poker face all the time no matter how I feel,
Treatments
- Positive Thinking Working / Worked
- Use that poker face. Smile even when you don't want to and the smiles from others in return will make your smile real....works for me.
- Wellbutrin Working / Worked
- Writing Working / Worked
- This helps me get a lot off of my mind, especially if I write before bedtime. Usually just write and tell God whats going on (like he don't know already)II just keep a journal and burn it when I get it full and start another.
