Welcome to the online network.This is the place to come for support and advice on getting through your BC journey,from ladies that have gone before you.It is an amazing place,so try to make sure that you use it:) Firstly,remember that these days,BC in it's many forms,is very treatable,and most ladies go on to,lead long,healthy lives.And also chemo,radiation etc,is much more refined than it was years ago,and many ladies,even work through their treatment.I would advise you ,in the beginning,to be totally guided by your medical team,and only take it one day at a time.It is so easy to think ahead,and it doesn't achieve anything.Easier said than done though,but this is where this network is so great at supporting you:) There are many resources available,and the best ones are from the reputable places like BCNA and CANCER COUNCIL.Beware of all the rubbish out there on the internet.I want to tell you that there is an end to having BC,and once you get started on your treatment,you will begin to feel a lot more in control.The beginning is always the very hardest,because there is so much waiting,and getting tests done etc. Take care,and I'm sending you a big cyber hug.xoxRobyn
