Hello
My name is Stella and recently joined the forum.
i had lung cancer 3 years ago, successful operation, but it has returned and in my bones.
I’m receiving palliative care and generally managing well. I do get tired but find the most difficult thing to deal with is lack of motivation. Do others find this?
Look forward to chatting to others. I live in the South West.
Hi WsMSH welcome to the group, but sorry you have had to join us here.
Yes I completely understand the lack of motivation feeling. I have an incurable lung sarcoma, and living with the side effects of my treatment is very hard. I have often spoke about how my life has changed since diagnosis, but in all honesty I think it is me that has changed. Having to stop work at the age of 48, meant losing my routine, my interaction with the outside world. My friends also dwindled, so with husband working I am often home alone, all day, every day. It’s hard to get enthusiastic to do anything!
I do try to get out once a day, even if it is just for half an hour. But I really have to force myself to do this, but some days it is just not possible.
