Hi Kath
Ive just finished 6 months of Chemo and 5 weeks of radio and have a small break before mastectomy and reconstruction. nearly fainted 3 times in the surgeons office while he explained things. I take my baby steps and think about one little thing at a time and try not to think too far ahead to save on some anxiousness, but also I have restricted my contact with some of the outside world, as some of the 'comments' and 'over shares' I get would topple me off my twig! I surround my self with my great professional team and close friends and family I feel very fortunate. It doesn't stop me worrying but lets me focus and get on with my life....which is there to be lived for however long.
