I never ever thought it would be me!
Ok I am the slack one who did not have regular mammograms. I feel so disappointed and angry at myself now. What comes next can only be my own silly fault!

Sorry to have to "meet" this way but you have found a safe place to chat and meet woman all over Aust that have some connection and like Moira said many are long term survivors. If your anything like me your life is very busy and we often forget to put ourselves first, so your not alone with delaying things i myself was given a referal for a mammogram (because I mentioned my boob hurt occationally) but never went because it "passed" and 4 years later had BC. Lifes like that but we bounce back and keep in mind that in this day and age BC is quiet treatable when found early enough. Try to relax a little (as if,lol) until you actually know what your dealing with, see your gp if you need help to get a good sleep so you can face the prognosis with a clear, well rested head. Meditation, what ever helps and now you have joined the BCNA family you have plenty of support through your journey. Dont forget to check out the support groups in your area, I have wonderful friends to share coffee, chats, tears and mile stones with from my local group, i wish you the same , Keep in touch we will all be thinking of you, Kaz
