My wife Kathy Young is depressed with the the thoughts of the treatments that she may have to have after the removal of a tumour in her breast and the removal of two lympth nodes.

Welcome Reg and Kathy
I am fairly new to this site also and have found it to be an invaluable resource and form of support. The girls are fabulous and incredibly strong and brave and Kathy you will see you will soon be just like them.
I would also recommend finding a breast care nurse. I have spoken to several over my diagnosis process but found one at Breast Cancer Care WA to be a fabulous support with a wealth of information that she posted to me immediately, including the wonderful zonta cushions to help after a lumpectomy or mastectomy.
Whenever I am feeling down as I have good days and bad I always hop on this site sometimes just reading other stories and other times putting my bit in. Either way I always feel better at the end. Like I am not alone and that there is always someone else out there doing it tougher.
I have found once a treatment plan is in place and has commenced you tend to feel better and more proactive as something is being done.
All the best for test results
