Hi... I’m sorry to hear about your diagnosis. It’s overwhelming isn’t it? I was diagnosed 9/4/20 and had a mastectomy of the right breast only yesterday so results on nodes still to come. Surprisingly I’ve been coping well so far... I live on my own with my 2 dogs and I seem to be stronger when it’s just me & them. My parents, who are in there late 70’s have come to “help” and all my mother does is cry. She is exhausting and is making things worse. All I want to do is go home to my dogs, be on my own for a few days & get my head around this. Unfortunately I now don’t feel comfortable going home so I’m spending an extra night in hospital.
