hey there its interesting to hear this from a patients point of view.. i try and tell me boyfriend im still %100 attracted to him, but its like he doesnt believe me even though i honestly mean it.. he has a colostomy bag and we've fought about the fact that he wont take his top off and stuff in front of me.. though baby steps he has strated getting changed in front of me which i like.. it doesnt turn me off not one bit, i just wish he'd believe me that i still think he's handsome 😞

this just sounds awful.. my boyfriend had bowel cancer and had chemo for six months, radio then operations.. next week is number 3 for two lung noduels.. it is a massive rollercoaster it seems like doctors are the enemy sometimes.. never give up hope even though that awful word "terminal" is used.. best of luck xo

so where do i start? well this week my mum told me she hated me, my boyfriend told me to snap out of my "sooky" mood (ive got depression) and my friends have all deserted me.. im struggling to go to work as it is.. i feel so upset, as ive supported my boyfriend thru his cancer journey for one year, and continue to do so.. its almost like he cant take me having a rough time.. i feel like i want to run away and never come back! my family who i still live at home with, are no where near as supportive as id want them to b.. im feeling very lonely and sad :'(
