I would suggest that you wait until you have a treatment plan so that people's questions are answered and you're not inundated.
Choose the method you're most comfortable with. Are most of your friends on Facebook? Then use that. Or you could create a group on WhatsApp and use that. Or just tell your closest circle and ask them to tell others.
I couldn't bear the thought of having to tell people in person so I did it via WhatsApp, copying and pasting the message as I went. My husband told some people for me. I let everyone know I needed time to adjust and to speak to my husband in the meantime.
The big rule here is that you only do what YOU are comfortable with! You're the most important person right now. So only do what feels OK, and when you're ready.
It's OK for your husband to be upset. I hope he has someone to support him other than you. You need to be able to rely on him, especially at this time, so he has to look after himself. Tell him I said so! K xox
