How have you dealt with working after treatments during the virus? They want me to come back before June but I’m conflicted.

@Pamiesue10 Hello Pamiesue10, thank you for starting this discussion! This is a great topic as we're entering the phased end of the lockdown in different states. I think many other members may be wondering the same thing.

Hello everyone, I hope you're doing well! How are you handling the end of the lockdown and your treatments? Will you or have you already gone back to work? Are you taking any extra measures to stay safe? Feel free to share here!

Never stopped my delivery job (pizzas). But I only work about 10 hrs. a week.

I enjoyed the cleared roads.

I completely understand as I don’t have anyone to talk to also. I’m a widow & I live alone. My oldest son died in 2021 & my youngest son & his family live 3 hours. My father is dead & my mother has chronic back pain & is immobile. My younger sister lives with our mother & she is going through a divorce from her husband who abandoned her. My sister doesn’t visit me, help me, call me & rarely texts me. I have various cousins, a niece & nephew that are spread out in nearby states but are hours away from me. After I told my friends I had cancer, they quit contacting me. I have learned how to be my own care giver. It has been very difficult. I’ll admit I’ve been depressed, cried a lot, felt sorry for myself but I never gave up. I prayed & read my Bible everyday. Then I found cancer groups online like this one where I could share what I was going through & got empathetic responses. That really kept me going. I hope you find someone to talk to but I highly recommend the online cancer chat groups.
