- Hi Jane, I'm 39 with 2 kids 2yo and 5yo (were 1 & 4 at diagnosis in January). I've had mastectomy chemo & radiotherapy. Mostly I coped just fine with only a couple of days during chemo that I couldn't get up and take care of them. They're pretty good little morivators!
- Yes I bit shocked! Found lump after a few days of bruise like pain. Only family history is paternal grandmother at 55.
im T2b, N1 grade 3 Her+ I'll be having some sort of surgery after chemo (depends on response) and probably radiation also.
im in Hobart, where are you located? - @joeyliz I also start chemotherapy soon, I have my first appointment with the oncologist Mon. Were you as shocked as I was? I have no family history I'm aware of so was certainly not expecting this....found the lump by chance. Have you been told what stage you are? Will you be having surgery down the track also?
