Welcome @Flips and I’m really sorry you have had to join us. There are many links in the forum as you will see and there is one specifically for young people with breast cancer. Of course we are all welcome to be a part of any forum but it’s great to meet and chat to others of our age as our treatment is often similar.
I’m sure others will be along soon to welcome you and to offer you advice and connect you to useful links that will help you. I’m glad you have supportive friends and family.

Treat yourself well and take care xx Lesley
