Hi Shaylee so sorry to hear that you will be going on this journey. I know exactly how you feel, firstly its the shock of hearing the "C"word and then all the tests and words you probably have never heard of . My Breast Care Nurse explained it the best to me she said its like boarding a train that is going 100 miles an hour and you just want to say stop let me off ! I promise I'll get back on, just let me get my thoughts together. I was blessed to have a wonderful Breast Care nurse and relied on her a lot. Great that your feeling positive but almost know its ok to be scared, jump up and down, stamp your feet and say its not fair! I felt everybody expected me to be positive all the time and a didn't have the right to feel angry. Its now 18 months since I finished my treatment (Chemo, Bilateral Mastectomy, Radiation & Breast Reconstruction) and it wasn't always smooth sailing but i got through it and am feeling like my old self again,
Sending you happy thoughts, Take care
