So I’ve been to a cancer well-being event today was great talking to people that understand what I’m going through.
i was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer in June 2023, for the rest of that year and all of 2024 I had treatment, including chemo, radio and Herceptin injections.
so last year and still now I’m dealing with the side effects including menopause .
my husband hand me had a big row and lots of shouting and finger pointing when I got home today cos he thinks it’s taking over my life, it’s all I think about and I need therapy ..among other things!
I was very upset and ran to my bedroom and I’ve been here ever since,
does he not realise these well being events are my therapy, does he not realise cancer is on my brain constantly, how can I get over it when it nearly killed me more than once.
anyone else dealing with this?
and how are you dealing with it if you are…I’m on the verge of leaving him!

We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
