Hi everyone,
I'm sorry I have not replied but my internet has been down(we live on a farm). Sorry about "Quoting" your reply @AliB, Im not sure how I did that.
Thankyou all so much. Each and every one of you have made good points and made
me feel a little better. Just having people who understand is so comforting
instead of those that just throw "keep positive" at you. If I had a
dollar for every person who said that I could head over to Europe!!
@AliB my mention of my GP was more to say that I thought she was terrible at
breaking the news with what she said. Thankfully she sent me from her office
straight to see the surgeon so I didnt have just her words to sleep on. The
surgeon was much more positive and when I told him what my GP had said he said
"well she has given you the worst case senario". Great!! I said to my
husband that I dont think they should give any more info if they dont really
know and just refer us to those who do. When she kept repeating to me "its
bad" I asked her if I was going to die & her reply was "AHHHHH
Not my area but its not good" WTF!!! Now that I know more I cant believe
she said all she did without more info & tests. Yes it is Grade 3 & triple neg but
she had no idea if it had spread and was talking like it had. Not going back to
see her again!!
@melclarity Wow you have endured so much and still seem so positive. You are an
inspiration and if you can continue with all you have thrown at you and enjoy
life and still take the time to help others like myself than that gives me incredible hope.
Thank you so much!!!
What I have taken from you all is to take one day at a time and deal with whats
happening now, pat myself down if I start thinking negatively (I will probably
just give myself a hard whack!), go to the local support group that my breast
nurse recommended and mostly to nuture myself. We have decided to go away as a
family for a week to Bali and have some R&R up in the rainforest in UBUD.
The Dr thought this was a great idea as we originally had a 2 week trip to
Vietnam planned for late September but we have had to cancel that. I am going
to have plenty of massages, eat out, relax, read, swim and enjoy my family. Oh
and have a couple of Mohito's!
Much Love xx
