My Sister My Friend & Cancermy sister was diagnosed with lobular cancer in september 2007.she went through 4 months of chemo(every 2 wks)and now will be getting mastectomy next week.she was doing great with the chemo till the last treatment.she stopped sleeping and became very anxious.we took her to dr who gave her anti anxiety and sleep meds.helped a little bit but shes still in a fog and worried and stressed about minor issues.i cant describe it,shes just not herself mentally and my brother in law and i dont think shes mentally capable of having surgery right now.we are going for pre surgical tues at sloan and someone is going to talk to her.we try so hard to keep her up and tell her that all she needs to worry about is herself,but i know shes just totlly freaking out cause she feels like shes losing control of everything.i just pray that we can snap her out of it and get her to feel that she will be ok.what a nightmare this has been |
