_ I should have done this a long time ago, thought I could get through this by myself, now I know I need help. _
diagnoised with stage 4 breast operations, chemo, radiation,working the whole time, finally having to quit my job, my husband and family turned away from me, WHY? After I could not work anymore my husband handed me divorce papers, (told me I had ruined his life) my bothers would not talk to me, lost everything I had worked for through the years. I am still trying to get over the side affects from treatment, I really need someone to talk to for me to keep on going. HELP

Hi Tiger
Aren’t daughters amazing. Mine is only 14 but so supportive. My story is not like yours in fact the opposite.
My family are smothering me. With my husband closing his business to look after me and my mother saying I can’t go back to work for years!!
I have even got to the point in the last 6 weeks of thinking how to divorce my OH as he is using this illness as an excuse to give up work and gas no intention of finding other work … so once I am back working will live off me as this illness (meaning me) forced him to stop.
We’d make a great soap!
So the downside in a few weeks we will have maxed credit card and be living on ssp. …
But to keep me going I look at my fantastic girl x
