Diagnosis + Forced Quitting

A week ago I was diagnosed with Nodular Lymphocyte Predominant Hodgkin Lymphoma.  Not only am I waiting anxiously for an appointment with an Oncologist, I live in a country that has banned smoking during the Coronavirus Lockdown. I have been forced to quit and am falling apart. I need help.

You are most welcome~ I'm a retired nurse and I understand that your type of cancer is slow growing and highly treatable as a rule so that's a bonus. But my heart aches that you have to wait so long to see an oncologist. It must be very difficult for you waiting to get treatment underway~ My prayers will continue
