Oh the memories..... around may last year aged 43 I was writing my very first post on this forum too (just click on any ones name on here then click on discussions and you will be able to read anyone’s first post too) and like many others I have been able to come out the other side of what can be a shitty time. As you read about us all on this forum a breast cancer diagnosis is always a shock, it happens at the most inconvenient of times, many have no family history, many with families, some are single, there’s also some who have been pregnant at the time of diagnosis, and some are even blokes just to mention a few examples. There are also ones who are famous who may or may not be anomalously on this forum Breast cancer doesn’t discriminate that’s for sure but I can tell you lovely that no matter what your circumstances are you can come on here for all your questions, advice, rants, bitching, complaining, and what ever else you need as there is always someone to listen. And during your bc journey (fuck I hate that cliche word lol ) no matter how short or long that might be you will be able to advise others too. there will be days when you don’t feel strong, and when you’re fucked off with it alll, and days when you just want to crawl under the doona and cry all day, and then there will be days when you make jokes, feel like nothing will get in the way and tell the world you are doing great. Rest assured though you will find the biggest set of hairy balls that you never knew you had need to fight this mother fucker and win. Biggest hug. Margie xxx
