Newly Diagnosed

Hi Kat and welcome to the network, commiserations on joining us :(. You certainly sound as though you have had a very thorough education in cancer treatment via your mums experience and what an example of a survivor she is!!! Fantastic to hear that she is doing so well. You sound as though you are handling the chemo incredibly well and whilst the next 10-15 months hold uncertainty they also hold the biggest certainty in that you are going to be cancer free when you finish! Your positive attitude and being able to find the silver lining in situations is going to be an immense help in dealing with the various treatments and I'm sure that your mum will be there helping you through as much as she can. Know that we too are here for you and that it doesn't matter if you are having a fantastic day or a crap one if you need to come here to chat,vent, de-stress or yahoo we will all be here to support you in any way we can. I would suggest however that this year around October/November you sit down a write a lovely letter to the big man in red asking for a better Christmas present than you were given last year! Please come back on and let us know how you are going with your treatment, cold cap, etc. Sending you a big hug and wishing you all the best. Xx Cath
