What is the hardest part about living with ovarian cancer?
Ovarian cancer is life-changing. It comes with so many challenges and struggles. What has been the toughest part about living with ovarian cancer?
What helps me cope is attending monthly zoom meetings that the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition (NOCC) provides for free. Talking about my experiences helps me cope the most as well as listening to other survivors. There is relief in sharing by using my voice with other survivors. It's like a "rinse cycle". I feel so much better after talking with other survivors rather than with my close friends and family. Even if the relief only lasts 1 hour, the stress doesn't come back as strong knowing that I heard other survivors talk about what they are going through. There is strength in numbers.
Yes it is one of the toughest part where you face so many difficulties though being positive has helped a lot for me. Its hard to ignore the pain, sufferings but somewhere you got those hopes to become fine soon check my profile. I pray everyone who is suffering like me recovers soon and healthy. Take care. Prayer..
The unknow...anxiety. side effects...new normal
Yes, all of these are so difficult to deal with. Is there anything that helps you cope? Warmly, Rackel (Team Member)
