Afternoon  I hope everyone  is good. Today I went for my check up with my breast surgeon. It was fantastic to walk out of there with a smile on my face. We chatted about my treatment and had a laugh, it only feels like yesterday she was telling me I had bc. It is now about 18 months since diagnised, it has been one of the hardest things I have had to deal with in my life. For all the newbies it does get better I never thought I would be here today saying this. Life is different I still struggle with some things but I'm trying to move forward and enjoy life again. This site has been great ,one of the best things I have found. Take care and take time to laugh and smile ,it sounds dumb but I really think it helpsxx

    Well done Rowdy,

    18 months down the track.  You've been a great support to lots on line here including me.  It's a great forum to express out darkest fears amongst bosom buddies.

    Good to see can come out the other end with a sense of humour intact.

    Best wishes

    Karen xx
