Hi @MezDiaz, I`m so sorry that you have to even think about this, and I completely relate to your sense of denial. When I was first diagnosed with BC, I was super-fit and healthy. It just didn`t make sense and I couldn`t take it in at all. It felt like a mistake. I felt pissed off that my marathon training might be interrupted! It just takes time to adjust to the idea and accept it. Your diagnosis is still very new. I think it can be a sensible idea to ask for a delay before treatment- I know my Onc gave me some time to get my head around it and rest up before my treatment began. The other thing which helped me process the diagnosis was reading about Breast Cancer and gathering information. I also hope that you and your family can find some support. Certainly, there is plenty of support on this forum, and from BCNA. The women here are amazing and so understanding. Take care of yourself. xx
