Welcome to this sight, you will get so much support. I had grade 2 breast cancer in March this year. I had a mastectomy and 15 lymph nodes removed. The cancer was confined to the lump, no nodes involved . I did not have to have chemo as it had not spread and was told because I had a mastectomy I did not need radiation as they took the breast. Have been put on Femara tablets. I am 53.
It is a roller coaster ride, everybodys journey is different. I struggled for a while with depression and anxiety,but I am now in a better place emotionally.When I was down I would get on this sight and let it all out, made me feel better. The ladies are so supportive. Any questions you have ask .
Have you got my journey kit yet?. Do you have a Jane Mcgrath breast nurse in your area?. I also joined a support group in my area, which has been very good for me.
Take care , big hugs . Debbie
