Radiation decision
Hello everyone, I was diagnosed 5 months ago with stage 3 triple positive (er+, pr+, and Her2+). I was told I needed the full package deal - surgery, 6 months chemo, radiation, Herceptin for 1 year...

Gosh, you've had some trials even before the BC diagnosis xx
Good on you @micaela - I live in a small regional town & can never envisage going back to a major town/city ...... when you look at whereabouts you want to 'move to' .....just do a google on any of the nearby hospitals first! Our 'local' hospital is 1/2hr away - and when we moved here 21 years ago, was told 'when in pain, take a train'! So when hubby & I were diagnosed with different cancers, we went to Sydney for our surgery. Our other 'local' hospitals are still 1.5-2hrs away for followup treatment (rads, MRIs etc.)
Having BC definitely shortens your bullshit metre ....... don't sweat the 'small stuff' .... use it on the big stuff.
Yep, we've just got to 'get on with it' as we don't really have a choice, do we!
Onwards & upwards .... I hope your forward journey is as easy as it can be ..... let us know the 'area' that you are interested in moving to, as we may already have members there!! ;)
take care xx. All the best xx
