I was induced into a coma last year and woke up earlier this year... So I quickly realized... "why does everyone ignore me??" everyone realized that there was a problem, so my family brought pads of pens showing me what's going on with me including that I do have cancer which was when I heard about it.

I still haven't heard a real human voice since last year so this has been so difficult for me. I can't normally work or even with a social life. Hearing loss from cancer doesn't make this easy now... I have 0 idea when this will get better because I can't handle this stuff.


If this helps anything, I'm exactly 1 year when I started vincristine.

Thanks.
