Hey Ladyace,
So you start Chemo tomorrow? Sounds like youre having similar to what I had, 3 weekly FEC x 4 then Taxol weekly x 8.
Registered Nurse, I think will be a good thing! as medically you will be across everything and onto it as you need to be. The only thing I would say is, its OK to slip out of the Nurse Hat so to speak and just be human, its an enormous thing you are going through. I love how all Women approach treatment scared of course but with such strength! Like anything it is hard to maintain a strength 24/7, so there will be moments you crumble but knowing its OK for that to happen. So allow yourself to just be you through the process. Hugs as you start, you'll do great :)
