Thanks ladies!
I just wanted to thank all of you who responded to my vent last night.
I'm definitely not going back to my 'support' group. I spend a lot of time and energy trying to keep myself positive and it was just horrible to get dragged down so quickly like I did yesterday.
I have to admit that I feel crappy after my chemo treatments, but once that passes, I pretty much get back to living a normal life (with the exception that I haven't been cleared to go back to work yet). I just felt yesterday that I was the only one in the room who was focusing on life beyond treatment. I mean I may not be doing the cooking for Thanksgiving, but I've planned the entire dinner. I told my mother to get out all the old Christmas ornaments because I want to decorate a tree. My last chemo is scheduled for 1/3 -- two weeks before my 37th birthday and I've already planned a birthday party. My neice's confirmation is at the end of March and FH and me are house hunting and planning a wedding.
So I'm just going to keep doing what I've been doing and not do the support groups.
Maybe all those years of watching Rocky and Superman have actually inspired me????
Thank you again ladies for listening to me!
