There is no way to shorten the emotional grief you feel when you are coping and battling with cancer. You deal with everything as it comes up but I think it's important to let it happen. I think it's really important if you're surrounded by people that are safe. You'll need to cry, you'll need to complain, and you'll need to vent and get it out. I think that's where a cancer support group is important. In our case we've paired up individuals and it's so encouraging to know this person has been through cancer. They've survived, they've had all the same emotions and the same fears. They've gone through the same discomfort as you whilst coping with cancer and they've come out of it and they're fine.
