Hi Joy,
I am so sorry that you are fighting the blues along with dealing with your treatments.....life surely is not fair. But I do think that you should consider
addressing your med for depression. There is no reason to suffer and if
medication will help lift those blues then go for it.
I think depression comes on in layers and just piles up. Then before you know it you can be in a rut with it. Many accept having bad days and that is normal
a few bad days, when it is lasting into weeks etc. well it is vital to have some
help.
Please know I am praying for you in your scans and in your emotional health.
Wish I were closer to you....I would pick you up and take you out for a girlie
day....
Hugs,
Jean
