Hi there love firstly. Just breathe. You need to take each day at a time. Once you get a plan of attack you will feel better the and oncologist will be the best one to advise you on this. Trestment is different for all of us. I was triple negative stage 2a grade 3 and I had dose dense didn’t bother with the cold caps and rocked the bandanas. As for your financial situation. Check your super for imcome protection. There are all options with accessing your super to pay your mortgsge. It’s a bit of a pain in the arse but worth pursuing. And also the bank has leniency for you if you struggle to pay your mortgsge so check I’m with them too. And also are you a single mum? As you can talk to Centrelink about accessing payments too. Don’t panic it all is doable. Make sure you take help from anyone that offers it and perhaps a friend can start a go fund me page for you if you need it or start one yourself and don’t be ashamed or worried about it it either you gotta do what you gotta do. Also your bc nurse and the social worker can help you too. Where abouts do you live love ?. I know of a few options in Brisbane if you are near me ?? And what is the oncotype DX testing you mentioned ?? You’ll be able to get all your trestment through the public system too. And try not to google anythimg. There’s too much conflicting info out there and it is a very good time to re evaluate your life and “take out the fucking trash” especially those people who drag you down. Biggest hug. Margie xx
