Re: Feeling low

Sending hugs Deylon..

Think about writing a list of the things you want to know so that your doctor gives you the informantion you want.

Plus without wanting to interfere are you sure you are getting all the help you are entitled to?
Maybe a check at the CAB or local social services would help.. I know my mum had no idea about her entitlements.
These included a taxi bus so that she didnt have to struggle on and off buses and a blue badge so that when my sil takes her out they can use the disabled bays. Little things but it makes daily living less of a mountain.

Good Luck...xxx

Re: Feeling low

I hope you are feeling a bit better today Deylon. There's nothing wrong with having a cry now and then. Sending some hugs of my own.

Re: Feeling low

Agree with all the posts here. Sending hugs too. xx

Re: Feeling low

Oh deylon I am feeling so sorry you get that news but as others have said it may not be all bad. I know when my nan got that news and was even told she had 6 months to live she just refused to give up and it was 15 years later, her oncologist died a year before that she finally died but she didn't even die of the cancer it was a massive stroke !

So please don't give up.


The treatments I'm finding make me very down too tired, low unhappy. But I know once it's over I'll be ok it's a chemical depression not my actual mood.

You've had a bad time it will get better I can promise and they don't always get it right you may get better you just don't know at the moment.

Re: Feeling low

You lovely people,THANKYOU for all your good wishes,I am still not feeling too well but Im taking on board all your suggestions and will write down /ask what I need to know,Im not going to give in Last week I had someone from Care in the Community visit me to see how I was coping,she was nice, but she asked what Id want to do if I cant look after myself,stay at home or go to hospital [ Home of course] , also do I want to be ressucitated if need be I know these things have to be decided but NOT the type of questions to cheer oe up,she rang again today to say she is sending me a from to sign and keep stating my wishes.
I have so many different appointments looming up for various health problems but have managed to arrange transport for two different appointments this week, so that is good,Ive found that community transport will take you to Clinics and my GP surgery transport for Hospitals ,
So far So Good

Re: Feeling low

Hello, Deylon! You seem like a very strong and resilient person, and you have my respect for soldiering on - even when it came to navigating those busses. Perseverance is a quality for which I have tremendous respect, and you seem to have it in spades. Feeling a bit low from time-to-time is understandable, and I am sure it will pass. It is brilliant on your part to consider the community transportation and I hope that goes well for you. I have known several people who have bounced back from the challenges of initial cancer treatment to have their cancer managed for years. My next door neighbor was diagnosed with kidney cancer twelve years ago, and while she is still "putting out fires" as she puts it, she is living a full, happy, and busy life. I hold the same hope for you!

Re: Feeling low

Excellent deylon. I thought there must be something in your area so I am really glad you have found it now.
That will be a big help to you. Well done.
