Crying is a completely natural response to the overwhelming emotions that come with a cancer diagnosis and treatment. It's actually a healthy way for the body and mind to process stress and fear, so allowing those tears to flow can be an important part of coping. Many find that reaching out to others in the community who understand this journey, practicing gentle self-care activities, or speaking with a counselor can provide additional comfort during the most difficult moments.

Crying is what I did. Have you decided what your going to do yet for treatment.? For me they recommended the NIGRO Protocol but I don't know if that's what I'm going to do. Naturally sounds better than getting my butt burned for 6 weeks. Hope your feeling better.
