Not sure what was around 15 years ago but seems to be a lot of support available if you reach out - here on the blog you can read about some amazing kind women and seek their guidance , cancer council has Cancer Connect which put me in touch with a woman who'd been thru same as I was going thru , found on the internet local support groups etc .Plus wealth of information in bcna My Journey Kit - Breast Screen SA gave me one - not just about treatment but questions to ask and organisations that will help etc etc PS There is a search bar on this site on the homepage which enables you to look back at earlier conversations on things that interest you which I found useful to zero in on things. One thing I will say is the internet makes it much easier to connect probably now
