I feel totally and utterly hopeless and trapped.
It is assumed I will disconnect chemo pump/flush picc line.
Nobody asked me if I wanted to and I don't!
I don't want to launder shitty clothes/bedding.
I don't want to be a punchbag for all the frustration.
I don't want to be unable to plan/commit to things I enjoy.
I want out!
