Feeling lost...

edited August 2014 in Mental Health: Because Cancer Doesn't Just Affect Your Breasts

It's been one heck of a year already. Been through radiation and chemo. My relationship at the time was great. Within a few months that all changed. The last straw was the night of my final treatment and the day before my birthday. He got home from work and told his kids and I they were moving. Just like that it was over. They were gone the next day. I was devistated. Cried for days. I was in no shape to take care of a house by myself, so I had to move in with my mom. I just feel so lonely. I had my "family". Just like that I lost it all. I just wonder now that I've gone through cancer, and all it's glory, if I will ever find someone to share my life with again. I just feel that no one would be interested in someone like me who's gone through all this and the possibility it may come back. Long days and long nights all alone are hard. I try to keep busy but it doesn't always work.

    so sorry you went through this. What a jerk!   If that's the kind of person he is, then he did you a favor by not wasting any more of your life.  I wish you the best and please don't give up on a relationship.  The right person is out there for you.  Focus on yourself and your healing. Best of luck.

    I am so sorry you have to experience this on top of all the BC stuff.  It's not fair.  I know there are many women here that have gone through the same thing.  Can you seek support from a counselor or support group locally?  I know that won't fix everything, but it may help you move forward.  I don't know what the future holds for me or you....but I can tell you over 3 years out things are quite normal again.  Life is much better...you are still in the thick of it all.  Hang in there.....hugs!

    Dear alecia0524.

    We are so sorry for your experiences. We certainly hope things improve physically and socially with you. It is so sad to hear such stories of people disappointing people just because of BC. Our hearts go out to you and we wish you the best.
