I just saw your post and hope you're doing okay. I felt really scared too when I was diagnosed about a month before you and have been looking for positive TNBC stories ( Google can be good but horrible too so I try to avoid it too much ) .. I have made buddies with a woman in the US who was stage 3 grade 3 TNBC and given 6 months to live ..... 30 years ago ! She is a grandma now and no problems . One of the US TNBC sites says "Stay Strong, Live Long and Fight Like a Girl !" I really like that warrior spirit .
There are lots of good stories .... The body is amazing and the care in this country is outstanding .
Every best wish for the New Year and I do hope you're feeling a bit less scared... It's all pretty much a big shock isn't it ......however I think we can all feel really confident about the future and the fact that advances are being made in research worldwide every week, In the US there has been a particular focus on TNBC over the recent couple of years and this can only be good for us.
There is also a woman in the UK who had TNBC years ago and has written a very positive book....I've ordered it online but haven't got it yet with all the Public holidays . I'm not sure if anyone else here has read it but I can let you know what it's like :) xxx Karen
