The Dr told her stage and grade, she wasn't listening or like you have said about her, for drama's sake she isn't sharing. My mother-in-law would probably not share either, just in case her's wasn't as bad as the next person's. lol
My boss has been really supportive, too. His mom lost a kidney to cancer last year.
I work from home most of the time, too. Lots of days lately have been spent staring at the wall behind my laptop.
Yep, you are so damn normal.
PM me too if you ever need to talk or vent.
Hugs, Debby

Unfortunately she won't share any information about the stage of her cancer (claims that they didn't tell her...which is nonsense...and that she doesn't want to know...which sounds like her). With HIPAA they won't/can't tell me anything...at her request no one has anything beyond being an emergency contact.
One foot in front of the other is the theme (for both of us I think) at this point. My boss has been totally supportive (it helps that his mother has had 3 bouts with cancer)....which is a big help....although there are a lot of days when I find myself staring at the computer screen and totally unmotivated to do anything for work. Thank goodness I work from home so no one can see me. 
I'm pretty sure that I'm driving Scoote completely nuts...because I really can't explain why one minute I'm fine and the next I'm truly not. Poor her. It has to be crazy-making.
Anyway...thank you to you both again. It really helps just to be able to talk/write about it. |
