At last I have finished all my treatments! I have been through a tough year and am relieved it is at present all over....I have been a brave soldier and not really said much to anyone so have ended up with depression which is now being treated.
I wish I had tried to speak to the people that offered to help and let the people who wanted to visit even though I thought I looked awful because of the chemo etc....it was just to say to people just starting out on the treatment path don't be too proud and if anyone asks to do anything do it as a distraction whilst you go through the process instead of putting on a brave face to the world...I also finished with my partner during the treatment so have to begin life all over again and I have every faith that I will find someone who will have empathy with my situation and not abandon me when life gets tough.
Be strong everyone......have a hug from me if you are feeling low.....take care x
