The beginning of my BC Journey
So hard to believe how your whole world can be turned upside down in one Dr's consultation. Breast Cancer...me???? It still seems unbelievable. Over the past 12 days I have been through the barrag...
I am so sorry you have to join us, but you will always have support here. We know what you are going through and feeling. It is a long tunnel, but everything goes very quickly once your treatment plan is in place. As Robyn said, take one day at a time - you will not get overwhelmed - and life is about to get very busy.
Don't forget to buy yourself a big file cover and plastic sleeves and keep copies of everything - your Pathology reports, appointments, drug schedules, any questions, side effects, receipts, etc. Do you have your My Journey kit yet? It is invaluable for information and support.
I am 2 years past treatment now and like Robyn, feel very well. There is light at the end of the tunnel, Linda - stay in touch and let us know how you are going. xxx Michelle
