Hi Tasia,Tasia said:Hello, I am not sure how to introduce myself, as this self, is new to me. I feel I havenʻt had time to prepare or make sense of who I am when I look at self. An experience, I have walked into or more precisely, I am on a treadmill of some sort and someone has yanked it up and I canʻt keep up. Emotions running havoc. I am very grateful for support services such as this and give thanks to the community of people who reach out to help each other. For those who read this, thank you.
This is my 2nd time on this treadmill. I was first diagnosed in 2013 with TNBC and had 9 months of full on treatment-surgery, chemo and rads. I was into my 6 year clear and had my usual mammo/us and bingo here I am again. TNBC but in the other breast - what are the odds? Had surgery within a week of getting the results and then had to go back in as they found another tumour but of another type & DCIS to boot. my advice is you will be scared to death and emotions will be high and low but just breathe and ask lots of questions...never feel like you need to make decisions on the spot. Don't sweat the small stuff and remember to laugh!! Good luck, you got this!
