Keeping family and friends informed

Hi Jo,

In hindsight I actually regret telling a wide group of friends so early on because my phone didn't stop ringing for 2 or 3 weeks and I received so many flower deliveries it was insane (lovely, but too much!).  Your diagnosis sounds similar to mine (14mm, lumpectomy + radiation therapy and now hormone medication), but the final pathology result won't be confirmed until after you have surgery so it can be hard to answer all the questions friends and family will come at you with!  The attention I received was well-intended but I felt really overwhelmed.  It is completely up to you how you communicate this with friends and family but don't feel bad if you do decide to keep it small or if you don't answer messages/ phone calls. 

Best of luck x
