Carolyn,
I was in your shoes not quite one year ago. I went through all the emotions you talk about. My biggest foe was the fatigue. I HATED it. especially during rads. I didn't think it would get me down, but it did. But guess what? Life is good! My "normal" is an about face from a year ago, but I'm loving life and I have energy again. If I could only get rid of these financial problems, life would be "perfect"!!
A year ago, i was a party girl. Loved karaoking, getting dolled up and going out to play pool and socialize. I still like to socialize, but i'm more home oriented now. I have a HUGE garden (NEVER gardened before) GO FIGURE!! must be that grandson that i have now!! oh, and another one on the way!!
Someone at work looked at my wedding picture behind my desk (16 years ago) and said "Is that YOU??? MAN, you were HOT!!" I winked and said,
"I'm still hot. Only really SPECIAL people can see it!"
