You've come to the right place. You're not the first person in the forum who struggled with depression, and everyone's here for each-other.
If you don't mind sharing, what kind of cancer are you living with? There are some subforums here for specific types of cancers where you might be able to get more-detailed information.
I was also disabled after my prostate cancer: spinal compression from a metastasis put me in a hospital bed for 3½ months, then a wheelchair, then a walker, then a cane. I understand your frustration: it was literally adding insult to injury, finding out I had stage four cancer, then finding out I wouldn't even be able to walk to enjoy the few years I had left.
(In fact, I was lucky; I initially expected to live only 3–5 years, but after 4 years I'm still in full remission and NED thanks to new treatments and miracle drugs, and have about 80% of my mobility back thanks to years of grinding physio; still, I didn't know any of that would happen when I was dealing with my new reality back in 2021).

It’s wonderful that you are doing better. Thank you for sharing your experience. It is inspiring to hear about you making such a good recovery during a time where you were uncertain of the outcome.
I have breast cancer then metastasized to a spot on my pelvic bone.
