So sorry you have breast cancer but you have come to the right place and you'll be ok.Like you,I don't smoke,hardly drink,eat healthy,not what you'd call overweight,breast fed the kids but I still got breast cancer twice.My first time was back in 2003 and I had a lumpectomy,followed by radiation.Last year(7yrs later)it came back in the same breast,same spot and so had to have a mastectomy and chemo. I've met alot of women along the way and the only common denominator that I can see is that we all had a high level of prolonged stress.Doctors don't agree with this but until they come up with a better explanation then it's the one I'm running with. The waiting and the unknown are the hardest bits of this journey-it can do your head in. Keep very busy (as I'm sure you will be)until your surgery and surround yourselves with lots of support.Come onto this site whenever you want to ask questions,chat or just vent.We know what you are going through and we offer friendship and support.Christmas will be hard but 2 little boys are bound to keep you occupied and give you some family fun.
