Thanks Christine.can certainly relate to your post. It certainly has been a roller coaster of emotions. Sleep is getting better. But not there yet. I'm sure I will though. It has only been a matter of weeks since life was completely turned upside down, Like yourself I was completely together prior to surgery. Knew what I had to do and was keen to get on with it. After the mastectomy, the reality of it all hit me like a tonne of bricks and I feel like I'm in a bit of a rut at the moment.

Trying not to beat myself up but sometime easier said than done. Thanks for your support. Best of luck for your recovery. Jodiexx
