I am 52 years, living in Adelaide and I was diagnosed on 12th November. I had a mastecomy on 18th December. I am now having surgery on 29th January (this Wednesday) Auxillary node clearance. Chemo and Radiotherapy and hormone traetment to follow.

Long walks can work miracles in lifting your spirits.
Keep sharing your journey, it also helps to get support from everyone on here!
