Hi, I agree with the person who “said, talk to someone without a degree in psychology.
They are so prepared with what they are going to tell you that they don’t listen. I had a terrible time with one. She must not have been listening because she gave me a book on a troubled life with parents! I had a great childhood growing up on a farm in Washington, I’m still close with my childhood friends and my parents were wonderful.

They seem to get so far off track and that’s because most people who go into Psychology had many childhood problems.
“(Talk with people who understand your fears of the disease we have.)
I will never talk to a person who thinks they know our fears , unless they have experienced them first hand.
I’m on my second recurrence, its not easy, but I want to get the most enjoyment out of what life I have , look for the good in people and you always find it.
The teal sisters I know are the Best bunch of women , positive
and wanting to help others
with anything that are dealing with in their Cancer journey.
Look for the Beauty and you will see it.
