Need some positive stories

Well my surgery is tomorrow morning. And I feel that I have already come a long way with my attitude. I have read all your encouraging stories, visited a councillor at breast care wa who was wonderful, coped with going to work after the news had broken (got hardly any work done that day thanks to well wishers but that's Ok for one day) spoken to many helpful people and I am feeling cautiously optimistic. So a big thank you to everyone. I will let you know how I get on. Thanks for all the hugs too. Lara
