74 and newly diagnosed

Well it is now 8 weeks since my diagnosis ILC and things have proceeded swiftly and smoothly thanks to the wonderful staff at my local public hospital. Had lumpectomy and sentinel node biopsy on 7th January and pathology results were the best I could have asked for. Grade 2 , stage 1A , no spread to lymph nodes, HER2negative and oestrogen +. Everything healing beautifully and not too much discomfort. Had appointment with radiation oncology this morning for CT scans, tattoos etc . Will  only have to have 3 weeks of radiation probably starting in a few weeks then hormone blockers for 5-10 years. The breast screen doctor was spot on.  So I consider myself a very very lucky lady but really feeling for the 2 other ladies I met in overnight recovery whose results weren’t so positive. Their BC  journey will be so much different to mine. 💕
