emotional pain

I've been diagnosed since 9/07 with 3C ovarian. In a month will be done with my 3rd round of chemo. For all the new people, so sorry your part of our crowd now, I just want to let you know if you feel like your losing it don't think its only you-its the disease. The hardest part of this whole scene for me at least has been the emotional element. Worrying about my kids and my husband, looking at death, lack of control. I think that is why websites like this are so helpful, you can express these feelings with people who understand and some how that makes you feel better-if only for that day.

Hi Bell! You're absolutely right - it's the emotional element that's the hardest - the unknown and the lack of control!! And we all know we're going to die, but this sure brings it a lot closer to home, doesn't it?!

I'm finished my chemo treatments but there's a big chance of reoccurence so I'm enjoying every monent of my life now. Stay with the course, you can do it!

Blessings, LindaMae

Hi Bell, Lindamae is right. You can't let this monster beat you up. Please stay positve and upbeat. I'm still fighting but I know I will beat this and you can too. Your not alone.I'm in God's hands and I know he loves me and when my time comes I'll be ready but I'm not ready yet I still have so much to do.Have Faith in God.
