Dearest Jenn,

I was so amazed by your story that half way through I read it out to my Dad, who has arrived, at 63 years of age from SA, to help out for a few months as you know.  Your write it brilliantly, although I was shocked at the one day express system you went through, I thought it was better than the casual, 2 weeks of appointments separately taken to be told my news.  Here you are one year later.  I discovered I have breast cancer during the month they call Breast Cancer Awareness month, great timing, I thought.  The morning we found out, my husband and I stood outside our cars and started crying, saying "What do we do now, we are supposed to go to work?".  On the way home I needed petrol, and he had to get out of his car and pour it into my tank for me.  I cried the 30 minutes out to our house in rural Swan Bay, following him on auto pilot.  The main thing that keeps me sane is this website too, and to be able to read your story and those just like it and think, "Im not alone!"  So many women have it, its just my turn.  Love to you too, Bel Mc
