Hi Tonya. Thank you so much for your kind words. I really appreciate it. I am so sorry to hear about your mum's battle with this horrible disease. My mother is very strong mentally but is not that strong physically so I worry how she will cope with the chemo but as you say, I am sure the oncologist will take all of this into account. She had an ECG before her mastectomy and she came through that really well and was very positive about it all. I am sure she has her dark times but as she said, she would probably be feeling a lot different about it all if she was 30 or 40 years younger. I haven't ordered the My Journey Kit yet as I am not sure if she wants to read it. I guess I could and have it ready for her if she does. As far as I know, she hasn't been offered a breast care nurse or any other support apart from home help after her mastectomy which she knocked back. Thank you again for your kind words. I was having a really bad day yesterday but am feeling better today. Love and strength to you and your precious mum xxx
