Surreal
Conversation with my GP and Diagnosed with breast cancer yesterday at 46 years old. When they called and suggested I have a support person attend it was a bit of a give away. However i was still hope...
Hi @Ali78
This forum was and still is such a source of wisdom, comfort and a safe place to vent, share - it really is such a resource.
In the early days, I formed a WhatsApp group for friends and family. After each significant moment (appointment or result or decision) my bestie updated this so that my nearest and dearest had up to date info at the same time, and I didn't have to go through the same story over and over. It really helped me keep people in the loop who cared about me, and meant I didn't have to worry about people not knowing. As others have said above, this bit is a whirlwind but as the path forward becomes clearer it really is a step by step process.
All the best to you,
Kelly
