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.

Hello everyone,
We’re conducting a survey of non-small-cell lung cancer patients and their
caregivers. We’re trying to understand what motivates or discourages patients when
choosing a treatment as well as patient experiences, unmet needs and expectations.
We want to know what’s important for you when making decisions about your
treatment? How satisfied are you with the treatment you’re currently receiving? What
additional information would you have liked to receive during your care pathway?

Your answers will help to improve the care of patients with lung cancer.
Sincerely,
Lee
