Hi Narelle
Sorry you are joining the group nobody chooses to join! But you will find so much support & help from those who totally understand what you are going through!
I was diagnosed last Sept....had mastectomy in Oct & finished chemo mid Jan, now on Tamoxifen. I have 2 gorgeous kids....aged 9 & 10 when diagnosed. You will find they are a great distraction for you going through this tough gig...and at times you will feel over whelmed too....but you will manage to get through it!
The treatments are just fab nowadays & very high survival rates...so really, you just need to breathe, take one day at a time & make sure to use this forum anytime you want.....it really was my lifesaver & still is!
Sending you cyber hugs...Jen xx
