hi everyone, just need to vent, oh f..... oh s... oh f..... I was diagnosed earlier this year with Mets, son had testicular cancer in 2017, he all clear which is awesome. Youngest daughter who is 29 rings me today, mum I found a lump, have been to the doctors got an ultra sound tomorrow, doctor has put on the referral it’s auxillary tail. I’m frightened and really scared for her, I have everything I can crossed and I’m hopeful it’s only a fat lump as she has a few of those as well around different parts of her body which her dad also has. Please please be that. OMG what have I passed onto my kids.

Both my sister and her daughter had breast cancer. No known gene. I'm certain my niece is only alive today because her mother encouraged her to check her breasts and follow through with appointments. So lovely. ..I have everything crossed it's a benign lump. Whatever it is..she has you to help her through what you truly understand as a terrifying wait.My sister sadly passed...but her daughter is 16 years cancer free. She was 32 when diagnosed. She drew on her mother's strength to get through her treatment.

Well everyone I am so relieved, it’s a fat lump, she just needs to keep an eye on it as they can grow, it’s such a relieve I’m so pleased for her 😃😃😃

Your daughter has you and she knows that you will be there for support. Thinking of you both.

So unfair to your wider family Glynnis 😞 My mum died of lung cancer, I ended up with BC at 27, my sister is intellectually disabled. You get so angry looking at those who seemingly traipse through life untouched and feel like it's all thrown at you, don't you? I sincerely hope it's a fibroadenoma xx

It continues to amaze me how often we come across rude and unpleasant people working in cancer care. Astounding really. I hope your daughter was able to shrug it off. K xox

Just keep reminding her to get checked out every couple of years , I started when I was 35 since had a couple of aunts with cancer .

It's scary going through the tests and the wait but worth it if it saves your life, I was clear in 2016 and Mets by 3/18 only being vigilant has giving me a better chance with treatment.

Good luck.

I remember when I went for my mammo and ultrasound last year (I was diagnosed last year at 40) - the person who did the mammo said quite rudely... where’s the lump? I pointed to where it was and she felt it and goes. Oh - that’s a rib. Wrong - it was stage 2B. I wish I could go back to her and tell her how rude she was.
Fingers crossed it’s nothing but good news for your daughter.
