Help... I am terrified!

Hey Sheryl

I am so very glad you have found us.  Have you ordered or been given your "My Journey Kit" if not you can order it online or call BCNA to post it out to you.  I found it very helpful but not as helpful as the love and support I have received from the online blog.

i can understand you are terrified as all you pink sisters can tell you that they remember that feeling.  I know I certainly do and it will stay with me forever.  But you know what I survived that day and thought to myself it wasn't as bad as I had envisaged it would be.  I survived that and another 5 chemo cycles and 7 weeks of radiotherapy.

I won't lie it was tough and hard going at times but it is doable.  You can learn so much on this site by using the search option at the top of the page, just type in what you are looking for and all the girls posts that relate to your search word will come up.  Also at the bottom of the page is a resources section where you can download, print off or order for your own information which again is fantastic.

Can I ask what area you live in, what type of cancer etc. was your diagnosis, how old and things like that so the other girls can relate and can chat with you to help you through.  Everyone on here is willing to help in any way we can.

I am here for you to ask questions, or if you need advice, to vent, yell, scream, cry and all those other feelings we have to deal with while going through our BC journey as crappy and as great as it can be.  Unfortunately it is a road that we are on with hills, flood areas, pot holes and all those other things your journey is going to throw at you.  We are here for you.

Thinking of you and understanding your fears, lots of love, Mich xoxoxo
