Newly diagnosed
I've retyped this post so many times I wasn't sure what to say. I got my results today and I feel numb. I've been quite calm, not many tears, but I know it hasn't hit me yet. At this stage, it's early...
Hi
Good luck tomorrow! I've just hit six months and happy to report I'm back to "normal" - new normal and better normal. I too have small kids and they helped me keep it real and stay in the moment. As scary as it is, treatment is so much better and your team will guide you through. You'll have lots of questions and lots of choices, whatever choices you make one piece of advise that helped me was "go with what you feel is best for you, when you look back in ten years time, this will be just a moment in time".
Good luck
