    know what you mean

    my 'partner' has been very unsupportive. Says a lot of women he works with have had breast cancer and done just fine afterwards. Now he is no longer my 'significant other' he is just my 'other'. I have major chemo brain and people think it is a cute name but it is very real. I get lost going to the cancer center and recently drove across the bay bridge and missed my turn off entirely. My 10 year old son is more help to me than anyone else. My ex-husband has been there for me just as much as my son. My 'other' should just move out and I don't know why he is staying. I need his rent money...

    So sorry your having a hard time

    I hope your doing better now and getting some help.  Do you have family and friends that can help you?  National Cancer Society has many programs that can help you in many ways.  Keep fighting.  Roar.
