@digbb I agree with you 100%! The need to be real about our cancer with those we love most can be very strong. But we can be left feeling very alone when at the same time we see how terrified they are themselves and our instinct is to reassure them. Definitely irony! And definitely exhausting. Here, we can be honest and supportive in a way that we need to be and in a way we understand. @suesam, sending good thoughts your way, keep us posted!

I do find it wonderful to have this forum where we can be honest. I agree with Polkagal and Digbb - that it's tiring almost hiding our fears so others can feel better. And thanks for your good thoughts sent my way. I finally see the gynecologist today and I'm glad but also so unsettled not knowing if I'm having a biopsy or just a 'meet and greet'. The unknown is always hard. They're also predicting more snow which makes driving tough but a friend offered to take me if I was nervous driving in the snow. I'll let you know what happened. Thanks.
