I'm a single mum of a 9 year old but I'm also lucky to have a very supportive ex (9 year old's dad obviously as well) and friends, one of which is also going through her own cancer, not breast though. My poor bestie has had to have her left eye removed to stop her cancer which had recurred late last year after being clear for 4 years. So while it's very different treatments we can support each other.
