Boathouse, I wanted to pick up on your last sentence "I am struggling with my feelings of being a cancer patient."

I get that. It's new identity that you didn't choose and one you didn't want. What do you find the most challenging? What helps?

Truly it is selfish, I raised 3 talented caring successful kids, waiting for my youngest to enter college so I could be an empty nester.
A journey I waited for so excited and 3 days later I got my mammogram results, and my life unexpectedly went into a path that to be honest, no one is prepared, but, it is now another year to get to the starting line.
So, again I feel selfish as I write this.
Round II of chemo, feel amazing no side affects of any kind, I am taking 1 appt at a time.
So, shifting my positive energy into keeping my routines.
Thanks for asking
