[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks for the ideas and the empathy. I do have a friend or two I can reach out to. It’s embarrassing, but it would be helpful as I finish active treatment. He does have a counselor and sees her regularly. I don’t know what they talk about since he’s past the age where she has to tell me. I just don’t know where I got this kid with no empathy. [/quote]

Sounds like the kid of a parent who has no empathy for the fact that he is a kid who is afraid he may lose the only parent and family he has. [/quote]

Way to kick someone when they’re down. Sounds like a post by someone with no empathy or attunement and who has never had to face any real adversity. If you had ever been a single parent and ill with cancer (or if you had any common sense) you would understand that there is zero bandwidth for anything but focusing on getting through surgery and aftermath. She has no one to help her. No one to help her take care of her son. And mastectomy is very disabling for weeks.

OP, is there anyone who can come live with you for a month or two to help you through the surgery and aftermath just to provide some stability so you can focus on surviving and healing? Even if you have to hire someone like a college student or live-in aide it will be worth it. Also, if you have friends, talk to them. I went through this last year (with a younger kid) and my good friend offered for moth of us to live with her on her big beautiful house.[/quote]

OP never said she had a mastectomy. [/quote]

[b]When someone says they are having surgery for cancer that usually means mastectomy.[/b] Sure maybe it’s a lumpectomy followed by chemo and/or radiation but it’s still a big deal especially if there is axillary lymph node dissection which it sounds like is her situation.

Can’t understand people like you who are set on gaslighting people in difficult circumstances. [/quote]

No it doesn't. I had breast cancer surgery, which meant the removal of some tissue, followed by nothing. 
We don't know what stage OP's cancer is. [/quote]

What we know is that OP sounds like a drama queen and likely troll.[/quote]

And you sound like a nasty b[/quote]
