Is it normal to be this angry?

Yes. Anger is one of the most common reactions, and one of the least talked about. It often lands on the people closest to you rather than on the cancer.

You are allowed to be furious about this. If it is frightening you or damaging something you care about, that is worth saying to us, and it is a very treatable thing.
