Self pity

I knew what was happening, but I also knew the news just wasn't going in.

Since being off work since 5th Jan and diagnosed on 20th Jan I thought I'd pay a visit to the girls I work with, I love their company and was missing them, I think that might have the triggered off the emotions I feel now.

I woke up a 5am, and all I can think about is I don't want to go, I want to stay and get old! My eyes are sore and I'm, frankly, getting bored of crying ... I've got to compose myself before it's time to get the boys up for school.

I know it's all part of the process, but I hate self pity and yet here I am.

not heard of this NHS move but NET Cancer has specific guidelines at NET Centres (based on ENETS proposals). Clearly as I said in the blog, many factors are taken into account and I'm not sure what your situation is. Advocate for yourself if possible. Don't let the doctors forget about you!

Thanks ... everything is just so weird ... I feel normal and look the same, but on Monday I'll go to The Christie & get told about the chemotherapy & radiotherapy they'll start on 15th.

I want to get started & run away & hide at the same time.
