Just read your blog and you sound like all of us when we first started out on this awful ride. December is a hard time of year to be diagnosed. Not that any time is not hard but because of the holiday period and shut downs, it's a slow and frustrating wait. I was diagnosed on the 20th Dec 2012 and the wait for my lumpectomy on the 22 Jan 2013 seemed like an eternity. I'd like to share with you my poem that I wrote during my journey as I thought you might like to read it. The link to the post is

Sending hugs to you and glad you have your wonderful nephew to give you love and support.
Love Janey xxx
