done the feeling of num and scary get better in time??
Morning Doreenw
I'm sure the numb & scary feelings will improve with time.
I had my last chemo on Thursday and will be having a follow up CT scan soon, after that I will see my oncologist in early June and until I hear the verdict from her I will still be worrying. I'm hoping that good news from her will help take that worry away.

I hope so for all of us, as I’m still going through treatment, I’m not sure how I will feel once I get to the end, and think I will be like others, as you get close to follow ups and scans you start worrying again. I hope by planning things whether that is holidays, crafts, gardening, watching Wimbledon, it will help to take my mind off things. I hope things improve for you Doreen
I’m gardening now that treatment is finished and it is planting season in my part of Ontario. I signed up for Art Therapy classes at a cancer survivor charity and am taking a couple of nutrition classes to learn more about plant based nutrition. I enjoyed the first class which was the day after my last radiation therapy. I hope that keeping busy means I won’t have as much time to worry about recurrence.
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
