Thank you Mima and Adean for sharing your experiences.
Mima, I am sorry to hear you lost your husband 8 years ago. I can't imagine how hard it was for you. Now you are fighting with BC without him, It must be tough. It seems you have great friends supporting you. There are so many women here so inspirational and supportive.
BC definitely touches so many people surrounding us. I have 3 close friends had it, one is a 8 years survivor still taking Tamoxifen just for a peace of mind, one is a 3 years survivor, one is a 2 years survivor who is pregnant now. Two of them had radiotherapy, one works for the community like you , she had radiotherapy after finishing work every day. She said she really struggled to get up for work towards the end of the treatment and took her about one month to feel better. So she wouldn't recommend anyone to do it. I was planning to take time off work if I have radiotherapy, but unfortunately I need mastectomy. I am waiting to a plastic surgeon.
Wishing you have an amazing trip!
Lots of love and hugs for you!
