Most hospitals have a program where you can talk to people who went through something similar - like a mentorship program? Maybe you can check into that? Also, I really recommend getting the Operation Beautiful book to read - there are many cancer survival stories in there! I am so sorry about your cancer. That is very scary.

Plus, my hair is falling out and I feel like an outcast because my friends but one are avoiding me and the only person i can talk to is my brother and I only feel better when I talk with him. I feel helpless and alone. How do I handle it. With all the pain it really is draining me out. I am in the midst of cancer treatment right now and I am afraid that I am going to die.

You need a healthier way to cope with stress! What REALLY helped me was running. Whenever I was sad or mad, I would put my iPod on and go for a run or long walk.
