Welcome to the online network Linda:) This place,as you are about to discover,is the best place ever,for support and advice,as you begin and navigate your way through the Breast cancer experience.It is something that none of us wanted,but these days,in this wonderful country,BC is very treatable.Most ladies go on to live long,healthy lives.I was diagnosed 16 months ago.I have had a mastectomy and chemo,and I have never felt better!!!The best advice that I can give you at the moment,is to take things ONE DAY AT A TIME.Be guided by your doctors,because even though we have a lot in common,every one of us has a different diagnosis.Some things the same,some things not.Stay in touch on here as there is always someoneonline to chat to or ask advice of.All the best Linda.Cheers xoxRobyn
