Hey there Everyone, I’m new here and seeking some advice. My cancer journey started in 2021 with a diagnosis of bowel cancer that had progressed into my lymphatic system. I had an anterior resection that went horribly wrong, six months of chemotherapy, a DVT, staph, a thyroidectomy and now a tumour in my bladder and one in my lung. During all of this my marriage underwent a lot of strain (it was never very easy) and I now find myself navigating a divorce with someone who doesn’t have any empathy or willingness to accept our situation and is making it very difficult to proceed. Honestly, I don’t think I have the capability of being able to handle this and I feel like just giving up on pursuing the settlement. My family tells me to not give up but I can’t seem to find the energy for both of these battles and I’m at the point where I will just let her do whatever she needs to do to make it go away. I’ve been subjected to all sorts of horrible abuse and have left home but I’m fortunate enough to have family members that can put me up, so I don’t have to deal with being homeless as well. Im feeling pretty overwhelmed right now and don’t know which way to go from here. My recovery is my priority but I’m really struggling and feeling like what’s the point. I’m not even sure why I’m posting this here but I’m desperate for this torment to end. Thanks for listening
