I am sorry to hear that you are feeling down. I hope you will look at it on a brighter side that it is probably a "blessing in disguise" for you. I really hope things will work out for the best. I myself is working full time and I have been contemplating on requesting part time or even permanent disability since I am stage IV. I know it's difficult to let go.
