    Divorce

     Chandra, I was divorced before breast cancer and in fact, before 2 prior cancers.  I was in a woman’s cancer group and most of the women in the group had recently gone through difficult divorces and had children.  I came to the conclusion that stress is sure not very good for our bodies!   I hope that you are able to get through your treatments and not have too much stress from the divorce. Stay calm and focused. I am sorry that you have to be dealing with so much at this time!

    so sorry

    I am sorry to hear you going through this difficulty in an already difficult time.  It happens more than not.  Some people just cant handle it for whatever reasons but I believe in the long run it is a way to filter out the negative.  At this juncture, surrounding ourselves with positive helps in our healing.  

    Prayers of peace for you,

    Annie
