Michelle,

My heart goes out to you and I can feel your pain. I don't know what to say to you other than you have to put yourself first. Havng cancer changes each of us and also those who are closest to us. Unfortunately, sometimes those from who we need the most support and comfort seem to either be in denial or unwilling to face the fact that we can not be the person we were before diagnosis.
