Annette,
I am so glad I came across your article! I finished chemo March 10,2009 for uterine cancer and must say there has been no one to address the emotional impact that cancer (and all that goes with it) has on one's life. Being in the health care profession as a pharmacist, I am shocked at how little psychological support has been offered - seems you basically have to 'find your way out of the maze' by yourself. Thanks for validating many of my feelings. I have been trying to tough it out by myself, but now realize the smartest thing for me to do for myself (and for my family) may be to see a therapist. Thank you!
