@schindler I can relate to that little deflated feeling after being the focus of so much attention initially during treatments. But in reality, I’ve learned over my cancer journey that I’m in their sights, just not the immediate focus of a critically ill patient. Look at it as sort of a graduation. You are doing so well or progressing in your treatments that it HAS become routine because you are no longer in immediate crisis. Does that make sense? If you have a problem I know the team would be reorienting around you.

Thanks for the info. As I have metastatic breast cancer my treatment is never over. So I believe I am always in a critical medical stage. So not sure if connections with cancer survivors would help me. I will check out your reference however.
