Just for an update, we tried to get a s second opinion on medical experts if its okay to delay the chemo. They told us that delay is prudent and recommended another course of action. We keep on holding on but as days passed, situation is becoming uncomfortable. Have anyone of you experience this?

You're right @dragokarl , I've seen that article too. Do you have any relatives working on the medical field?

That's so tough. Let us know about the doctor's findings. Also, just be brave enough and always think positively.

You may need time to grieve, which means that you spend some time processing and feeling the loss before healing. Though you'll never get over this completely, remember that happiness is right around the corner. Your father will forever live in your heart.

Sorry to hear your Dad's loss. The reason you can't cry is because him dying didn't yet sink in your mind. In layman's term , there is no yet acceptance. I have a friend who lost his father too but, not in cancer. It took her at least 3 months before crying. What you are undergoing is normal , just give more time for yourself to internalize everything.

I tried to contact the hospital for the appointment but, shocked to hear they are understaff and was given an advice to look for second option. Literally, it adds up to my worries. However, will try to contact other nearby hospitals. So many nights have passed thinking how will we overcome this.

I have no experience of the matter but, my prayers are with you. Just be positive and always take precautionary measures. If something is not right, consult the doctor right away.

Hello, Hope all are doing well here. I just need to voice out my thoughts. I have a family member currently undergoing chemo, she was diagnosed with breast cancer. I'm bothered of her because of the pandemic that we have. Been watching the news and reports are talking about increase covid cases or different covid variants available. Due to these, lockdowns and border controls are being implemented. I'm worried that she may not have her scheduled chemo because of hospital's understaff? I've read that essential workers continue to face a number of challenges too. They are more likely to report symptoms of anxiety or depressive disorder (42% vs. 30%), starting or increasing substance use (25% vs. 11%), and suicidal thoughts (22% vs. 8%) during this pandemic. Hence, its bothering me if its okay to delay the chemo.

Do let us know if you remember the title of the movie. I have after life on my mind but, it seems this is not the movie you refer to. I want to get ideas on how to do this alive funeral but, I'm not sure if I'm going to add this on my bucket list. I'm not that brave like you do, man.

I wish everybody can be like you. You're so optimistic, may this attitude radiates to the members of this forum. If you will notice the threads here, its more of stress , fear and anxiety. Me, myself, feel that. Its good to read this stunning post of yours.
