Hello Deb,
Welcome to our community. I'm glad you've found us. There are many people here to support you.
I'm sorry you don't feel more supported and comforted at home. It could be that your family is just as scared and worried, and no one is really sure how to deal with it all.
Remember that there are many outside sources of support and networking for women with breast cancer. Have you considered the options?

Are YOU happy? Can Getting Cancer Make You Happy?

Ten Reasons Cancer Stinks, and Ten Reasons it Doesn't

Happy Thanksgiving,
Maria
