Hi Rachel, I finished my treatment for head and neck cancer 12 months ago and after a long recovery time am only now getting used to the new me.What I went through has changed me as a person and I feel differently about a LOT of stuff.Not having to get back into work quickly has meant I can access my situation and I feel like I am heading off into a whole new tangent.Relationships have changed too,people who have not been through what we 've been through don' t get what we get so that can affect how we relate now.But all in all I am now embracing these changes for I feel I have a far greater understanding of the preciousness of life and that to me is an amazing thing to have realized.
