Hi Alison, yes the thinking about our own mortality is really scary, especially when you have a child/children that will be left behind with no other parent to care for them. I'm not preoccupied by these thoughts, however they do cross my mind from time to time. I hope my scans will be ok, and I can give this cancer the thrashing it deserves!
You say you "only" have early breast cancer....I had it back in 2008 and EBC is horrendous! It is bloody frightening! I remember the tears, the sadness, the anger and the fear...it was awful. I'm not sure how to compare an EBC diagnosis and an ABC diagnosis. For me, both were devastating and life changing. I hope you are coping ok.
Take care Alison and hope you have a relaxing and enjoyable X-mas,
