Hi guys,
BCNA approached me a few months ago to be involved in a new resource for young women diagnosed with BC having to navigate the realms of fertility preservation. There is a video which has been released I'm not sure if it's on here yet...
But here's a link to a personal reflection they asked me to write.
Hope it helps someone else one day. 
PS can cross "movie star" of my bucket list.

    Beautiful, and so important to share with others who are hit with all that at once. I'm sure there are many who will benefit from seeing your words. Your hair is a little ahead of mine! I'm hoping mine looks like yours soon!

    Hi @youngdogmum
    So amazing you are doing this for BCNA and have made this information available for other young women, going through the rollercoaster of emotions following diagnosis. And we all know it doesn't stop there.
    I remember we both joined BCNA about the same time earlier this year when diagnosed, and I am also an RN, so felt an 'affinity' with what you wrote. 
    I wish you,your partner and lovely dog a wonderful Christmas- you are a beautiful family!
    xx
