It's just really uncomfortable when someone seems to be going out of their way to be emotionally mean. The BCNA helpline were really good before my surgery. I haven't heard from my nurse for a week but I have emailed her. I do have some wonderful friends and family I am leaning on. And you guys are amazing. One breath at a time.
