Scared !!!
Hi, I have just been diagnosed with Stage 1 Breast Cancer. Im so scared, wanting so many questions answered.....
Does anyone know if I'll need Radiation or Chemo? How will it effect my husband an...
Glad to hear today is a good day!
I have a 13 and 9 year old. We sat both kids down and told them I had Breast Cancer and what that meant. We told them I would need surgery, chemo and then radiation. My hubby and I then briefly explained what each of these meant and how it would impact on me.
We spent a fair bit of time crying, hugging and it eventually turned to laughter. We have always been honest with our kids (9 year old has had his fair share of medical problems from birth) 9 year old asked "would i walk funny with one boob" LOL
You will find the right words when you sit down with them.
Thinking of you and wishing you a peaceful weekend xx
