Very difficult to listen the Podcast
Hi all, so I started listening to Charlotte's podcast. I just started the Episode 2. While this podcast is fantastic, I find it extremely hard to listen and my emotions just overcome me. I would lo...
Hello, I had double mastectomy and immediate reconstruction 6 months ago. I’m not ok most days… I talk to a psychologist every 4 weeks…. it’s hard to talk to friends about it because firstly they don’t think DCIS is cancer and then they think how lucky I am to get a breast lift, a boob job, a tummy tuck - all words that I find really upsetting and not funny….. I can’t watch shows where someone is sick, I don’t want to watch the news, I don’t like hearing about anyone that is sick or has passed…. Even with the best family and partner u feel alone….. I send you hugs and strength and hope you are ok xxx
Adelaide2025 im a newbie here & was wondering how your surgery went & then I found this post .
I hope that you’re feeling a bit better after another month & appreciate your honesty. I’m still a bit numb after my diagnosis & wondering g how I will be feeling in next few days after telehealth after surgeons team meeting. I hate not knowing & not having a plan for moving ahead.
all the best & hang in there. 💐
Hello Linlinnylinda sorry we all had to meet here 😔 It’s tough, but please hang in there and know that the cloud will lift. It's OK to feel everything you feel, but know that the plan will make things bit easier. Post as much as you want. I check in here regularly and really love messaging with people here as we all simply get each other, and no question is silly.
I am scheduled for my surgery next week but prior to that I have a blue dye procedure scheduled, and I am absolutely petrified of both, pocedure and a surgery. I'm a mess. Trying hard to be brave.
Please look after yourself and be gentle and kind to yourself. Please make yourself a number 1 priority.
Wishing you all the best 🌻
Thanks so much for your response. not only am I going through this but my older sister has too though her cancer was different to mine & is the reason I did more testing! I think she had the blue dyetest before her surgery from what she has told me.
We live in different states so i havent been able to see her but offer as much support as i can remotely.all the best for next week & you too take care of yourself 💐
Linlinnylinda thank you ❤️
I am really sorry to hear about your sister as well, that is tough.
Please stay strong. Do whatever it takes to get through everything. Sometimes, I find watching comedies help, so give it a try.
Please feel free to message whenever you feel like it.
Sending you hugs 🫂
