Hi I am recently diagnosed & although I feel like my life has had an atomic bomb dropped on it I am trying really hard not to make a big deal out of it.
I struggle with telling family and friends when they politely ask me "how are you doing?". 9 times out of 10 they really don't want to know.
Most of my family is dead. what little family I have left lives in other states so its just me and my husband. (and my in laws...)
I know that the shock of the diagnosis will wear off and I really don't want anyone's pitty. I am too independent for that.
I guess what I am getting at is I have to let it out but I don't really know how.
