Re: please help! is my cancer worse than anyone else's because it has never went away
Dear Kim, thank you so much for your beautiful message. I feel I was doing all the right things during the first and second chemo, eating well, relaxing. Yoga, arts and crafts but all those good things didn't work and the cancer remained or came back.
I feel I am frightened that my oncologist might tell me something I do not want to hear.
I am frightened that my life is over.
My dream right now would be to get pregnant and give my husband a baby.
I really appreciate your kind words x
