I have been lurking for awhile now and decided to finally sign up. I have found so much valuable information here, this board helped me get through my info processing stage. I was so numb/shocked the first month that my emotions just basically turned off. Now, they are starting to make themselves known. Today was the first time I have cried since my Dx. I keep trying to trivialize my cancer because I "had" it for such a short time(5 days) and it's gone now. I feel guilty for missing work, creating money worries, I feel sad because my life has changed forever, the pity party list can go on and on. So, I guess I signed up to get a little encouragement, to let myself process what's going on with the people that know the most what is going on in my head.
Thanks,
JoJo
