Thanks a lot yes I've not recieved any chemotherapy or radiation since 1991
but have suffered the aftermath effects since. for the last few years as my physical health has deteriorated


I worked for my husbands company on a part time basis as the company was very flexible to my ongoing health problems hospital appointments


I was physically working from my bed.
The phone was diverted to my husbands mobile phone. I sent invoices in my own time and passed information when needed.
but just having to deal with these small tasks became increasingly difficult to tolerate.
But I wasn't able to let go and didn't want to admit to myself how bad I had got.

As I know how mentally debilitating it is not to have a purpose suffering long periods of not working due to the ongoing effects of the cancer treatment that have contributed to me feeling severely depressed isolated suicidal.

'Ive had treatment on and off for years. the last antidepressant treatments made me feel much worse. I also had counselling psychotherapy. the counsellor who I last saw reported that the depression was probably caused by declining health problems pain fatigue anxiety and self worth.
