Broken
Hello,
I'm 21 years old and about 5 months into battling stage 4 lymphoma. I recently just finished my chemotherapy treatment and will be awaiting to hear results in november. Treatment has been difficult and at times unbearable.. but recently I find it harder than it has ever been. Yesterday my girlfriend of 3 years (on-off )and mother of my son decided to break up with me, it is also important to mention she walked back into my life conveniently when i was diagnosed with lymphoma. I feel more alone than I have ever felt in my 21 years on this earth. I look at my son and wonder what the future holds, my son is the most important thing to me but sometimes I feel like I'm walking through ten feet of snow trying to keep everything together.. I just don't know what to do anymore..

Prayers lifted
I'm sorry you are going through this. Cancer is rough no matter the circumstances. Relationships are tough, too.
I hope you have family and friends who can stand beside you during this time. Someone on this site with experience similar to yours may come forward,too.
Hugs, John.
