Welcome to the online network,an amazing place,where you will find advice and support.One year ago last Tuesday,I also was diagnosed with cancer.My husband was overseas at the time,and my daughter moved a mattress into my room,on the floor,so each time she heard me crying during the night,she would turn on the light and hug me.I was pretty much convinced that my days were numbered,and it wasn't until I joined this blog,and started to read and communicate with other ladies,that I realised that I was going to be OK.Now try to hear what I am going to say:) Most ladies diagnosed with BC go on to lead long,healthy lives.In the beginning,when we are waiting for test results,we always read something into what the doctors say,or don't say,or the'look on the face' of the person doing the ultrasound.I used to think that they knew something terrible for sure!!!!!BC these days is SO treatable.Even if you need chemo,or radiotherapy,or whatever,you will be OK.:) Stay on this blog,as much as you need to.No question is silly,and every one on here will help you through this.I am sure that over the next couple of days ,you will find that ladies who were terrified like you,will come on here and offer support.The beginning of this journey,when you really don't know much,is always the worst.Once you have some results,and a plan of treatment,I guarantee you will start to feel more in control.YOU CAN DO THIS!!!! Big hug to you.xxxxRobyn
