It's ok to be scared. My diagnosis and surgery happened very quickly as did the chemo and radiotherapy ( finished on the 15th March!) I was lucky ( or unlucky?) to be in the private health system and i had my op 2 weeks after diagnosis. I had grade 3 stage 1B cancer which luckily didn't spread to the lymph nodes. I was only offered chemo largely because of the size and grade of the tumour.
Good luck with your journey. The fear will subside. Blog away anytime. We are always here. ( Where is Perth are you? I'm in the north). Great to have another WA -ite on this site!!
Take care and I'll be thinking of you
