I felt pretty much exactly the same way as you do. My world fell apart overnight and it seemed like I was living a nightmare! I have four young kids 1,3,5 and 7 at the time and I struggled to keep a straight face every time it looked at them. I had surgery and that week in between waiting for results will go down as the worst moment in my life to date. But once all the reports were in I felt I had a bit of control over what was about to happen. I did 6 rounds of chemo which I had to travel 1200kms each way, then did 7 weeks of radio so we relocated to perth so the kids could stay in school - just trying to keep things as normal as we could. So I'm still down to perth every three weeks as I am HER2+ but I am nearly counting down to the finish, 14 months from diagnosis - what a ride it has been - one I'm ready to get off! So know it gets better with time, the next part I look forward to is waking up and not thinking about bloody cancer. Happy to talk or chat anytime you need. Best of luck Tash xxx
