@casie.bakes.tx: Do you ever feel guilty talking about how hard cancer really is because you don’t want your family to worry? 🩵 What do you keep to yourself?
All of it. I have stage 4 bc to bones and liver. I don’t want to scare them. Plus it’s a lot of cumulative damage. I cry sometimes in the shower alone.

I keep most of it to myself. No one would really understand and finding the words seems impossible

I kept everything to myself six rounds of chemo alone double mastectomy three weeks hyperbaric chamber, 12 brown radiation and three breast surgeries after still currently on chemo pills. I could go back and tell myself four years ago something I would’ve told myself to never do it life after Cancer is just existing there’s no living.

I don't tell them how scared I am to die suddenly from any number of issues from treatment. It will devastate them if I die while they still have hope but if I can make it to a point of needing hospice then they can get a bit of relief from my passing because I won't be suffering anymore.

I always said I felt good even if I didn’t. I assumed no one wanted to hear the real answer

I talk about it, but I’m more at peace with my mortality as a stage 4 patient than my family.

I rarely talk about it. When I do, it's because I have had a rough moment and have completely lost it.

I promised my young adult kids they would get nothing but the truth I got from my doctors. I tried to keep them from worrying too much during the aftermath of chemo.

I don’t tell anyone how bad the pain is in my back anymore. I have stage four cancer w Mets in my spine. Then when I can’t do something I’m the asshole for not getting everything done. I just move on.

I always feel guilty about having cancer! I only talked to my sister in law about all my feelings because she was going through the same thing and now we’re about to bury her! I feel so guilty 😢
