It's certainly a time of waiting on this journey. You seem to wait for everything. When I was diagnosed in December last year I could see this long horrible road stretched out before me and I was so scared but I am amazed at how quickly this year seems to have flown by. I've had a lumpectomy, sentinal node clearance, 6 months of chemo, double mastectomy and reconstruction, still on 3 weekly Herceptin infusions, Femara tablets and daily injections so my journey isn't finished yet, hopefully soon. Apart from a few speedhumps after my big op in September (blood clots in both my lungs) I have come out of the dark tunnel. You will find inner strength and determination and your family will rally around you and support you through. It's not really being brave and courageous, it's what we all have had to do. This network really is wonderful and it literally saved my sanity to "talk" with other lovely women who are so caring and understanding. They have given me a lot of peace of mind. I hope we can now support you on your journey. I wish you wellness.
