Hi Studee52855b
Welcome to our community, I hope you find it both informative and supportive.
I am Steve one of the community champions and my experience of cancer is via my wife who has Leiomyosarcoma so a very different type to bile duct. I most normally post in either our Family and friends forum or Carers only forum but noted your post had not been answered and did not want you to think it had not been noticed.
Your post makes perfect sense to me, hopefully you have seen the information on bile duct cancer already but you may also be interested in looking at your feelings when someone has cancer I know it helped me being able to recognize these emotions and accept them as part of the new normal.
I ended up doing a living with less stress course that really helped me. A good part of that was accepting that nobody really knows what will happen tomorrow - as they say yesterday is history, tomorrow a mystery, today is a gift that is why they call it the present. Something else I found useful was the conscious breathing training since that can help me relax and even help with sleeping.
<<hugs>>
Steve
