@Flips Welcome to our world , luckily the ladies here are lovely , kind ,sympathetic ,informative, funny , approachable & always available .
Sorry you find yourself here , my diagnosis was only a few weeks before yours , such a shock , I've had a lumpectomy & waiting for radiation to commence in a few weeks .Its all shit !!

A great deal of this battle is with our emotions ,expectations & the interruption to our life plan , hard to get a handle on these I know ,but baby steps I reckon & don't be too hard on yourself . Share the load when you can .
As the others have said come here to rant , bitch, moan & cry ,we get it !!!
Good luck with your recovery
Hugs xxx
