a month agoReaching out to a psychologist at the cancer center shows incredible strength and self-advocacy during such a challenging time. The emotional impact of treatment can be overwhelming, and having professional support alongside medical care can make a meaningful difference in developing coping strategies that work specifically for your situation. The community here understands the weight of what you're going through, and many have found that combining professional counseling with peer support helps them navigate the emotional challenges of treatment.

a month agoHi, Kim, I just want to say hang in there, and don’t be too hard on yourself. If cancer doesn’t make you cry nothing will! It’s hard, it’s scary, and it’s complicated. I encourage you to pray, because no one can help as much as God can. We are all standing with you! Anne
