Hi all,

My name is Narelle and I was diagnosed on 21/3/2014.

I have a 9 yr old stepson, 6 yr old daughter & 7 month old son.  I am 36 yrs old.

I will be going for surgery next week.

mmm...not sure what else to add except that I live in the Frankston area in Victoria.

Thanks for letting me join this group.

    Hi Merylee,

    As it is during school holidays I would have 3 children with me so it probably wouldn't be appropriate.

    Can you please let me know when the next one after that is and I will try to make it, depending on treatment.

    Thanks

    Narelle

    Dear Members

    Thanks for having me in your group. I'm 34 and  was diagnosed on 21/3/14 with stage 2 Invasive carcinoma, lymph node involvement.  I have a 6 month old, 2 year old and 8 year old.  My whole world now revolves around anything cancer related... but top priority is my children and keeping life normal for them.  I'm in the Eastern suburbs, so am looking forward to attending some group meetings in the future (nothing like a good excuse to go out and have a good laugh).  I'm in for surgery next week, and the boob job I never wanted!  haha  Still, life is good, the grass is green and the sun is shining (well apart from today, its kind of grey out there).
