Guest guest Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Lynda, I am so sorry that I cannot help with the cold caps, I am sure one bit of good news would help to lift your spirits. When my mum had cancer I did not really speak to her about it, and must admit that I kept my distance a bit due to FEAR. I realize now how selfish I was but I was terrified for her, I didn’t want to cry in front of her so I kept my distance. When I did go to see her in hospital I tried to talk about anything other than that dreaded word. As I have got older and wiser and also ill myself I understand just how shallow I was. My mum needed me and I was not there for her as I should have been. I guess what I am trying to say is maybe your family are just terrified as I was. I bet they are just how I was though, my mum was on my mind every second of every day. I understand how you must feel over whelmed by it all, you WILL regain your fighting spirit and positive attitude, I also pray that it will come quicker. Love Sue. From: [mailto: ] On Behalf Of Lynda Roth Sent: 11 March 2008 15:41 salineSupport Subject: A week into second treatment, seems like years since I found out I had this cancer the second time. Still dealing with daily nausea, fatigue, problems sleeping, constipation, and chills. Food does not taste good for the most part. Have to try to find something that I really feel I want to eat to tempt me to eat at all. Much of the time I am so tired I just go back to bed for hours. I don't know how this progresses, but I seem to have gone from mostly angry to mostly depressed. Sometimes I can cry at the drop of a hat. Everything makes me sad. I feel overwhelmed with trying to manage all the sickness after the chemo and overwhelmed with the enormous task of trying to fight to get better. I feel overwhelmed fighting the hand-foot problems and getting the fluid drained from the pleural cavity. Just trying to keep prescriptions straight overwhelms me. I feel overwhelmed just having to drive back and forth to Boulder a couple of times a week. I just plain feel overwhelmed with all of it. I feel like most of my family (kids in particular) and friends have disappeared from my life, as maybe they just cannot handle this or don't wish to be involved. Heaven forbid it is ever their turn to have this happen to them. I know this is one of the stages of grief, wish I could work my way out of it quicker. I need my positive fighting energy for all of this battle, and this seems to detract. I hope to be out of this stage soon and on to something I feel I can hold onto with more strength and fighting ability. Maybe tomorrow will be better.

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Sue, Sounds like what my kids are doing. Guess I did not do that with my mother. All of us went to Oregon as often as possible and just spent time with her. My oldest brother was with her when she died. None of us were able to be there right then, but had been there a couple of weeks before. I think both my sisters will come and spend time with me. They will want to do that while I am as much me as I can be. Who knows, I may get much better and outlive a couple of my siblings.
