Only just beginning...decisions & choices!

Robyn is right when she says that our doctors are in the best position to give guidance about what is the best way to treat your cancer. Everybody has different circumstances which effect treatment options. Australia has a terrific medical system and we are very fortunate that most of us will have the recommended treatment and never have to deal with BC again!

I had radiotherapy last year as part of my treatment. The staff were absolutely wonderful and felt like good friends looking after me. It is the thought of the unknown that is the hardest part of this and soon you will know what to expect and this will make it easier. You do get a bit tired towards the end of radio and you need to be vigilant with the cream. Putting a wet washer into the fridge and then putting this onto the radiated area when you get home each day is very soothing. There are lots of ladies who will be able to share their tips to make your treatment easier. Keep in touch. Deanne xxx
