Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
The oncologist recommends that I continue with chemo through all of 2018. There will be some scheduled breaks, but today I feel like this will never end. I could turn it down, but I lost another friend to cancer this week, she was a fighter, and I feel I must go on in her honor and in the honor of the other friends cancer took from me. I'm told I am doing well, but that this is protocol with the kind of cancer I have. I just wish the fatigue and nausea would subside. I've tried so many prescriptions for the nausea. I've even tried home remedies. Oh well....
They say God doesn't give us more than we can handle...though I don't understand what in the hell He is thinking as you have to go through this.
The only thing I can think is that you have come to meet all your friends who have also suffered their own struggles (either leading your way, or right beside you).
Many others have come to know and care about you and support you the only way we know how (with our love, support, and prayers that this horrible journey becomes easier and you can get back to simply living your life.)
And to all of us you have proven what a special lady you are and your determination to fight like hell....giving hope and courage to others who are terrified as they begin this fight of their own.
God bless you.
