Welcome neeny, you have come to the right place for support and understanding of what you are feeling emotionally and physically.
First of all I’m so sorry to hear of your mums illness, it must be a difficult time for you.
You said early stage breast cancer, that’s great that it has been caught early.
You didn’t mention what state or area you are in? As I’m sure other people will jump in and let you know what is out there to help you in your area.
Has anyone spoken to you about a Breast cancer nurse? They are great for support and information in your area, also speaking to a psychologist will help you through this especially if you don’t have family close by.
I went and did a meditation and mindfulness course when I was diagnosed in October last year which I found very beneficial.
Stay positive, accept help when people offer. Keep talking here on BCNA to vent, good and bad as we are all here to help each other get through this shitty experience.
It will be a roller coaster ride of emotions, please don’t think you are alone as we are all here, we have all been there and most of us are still there.
Together we can be strong.
Any questions please don’t hesitate to ask, we are all here for you.
YOU CAN DO THIS!
STAY STRONG AND POSITIVE
Sending hugs your way xx
