Never thought I'd write a blog
I was first diagnosed on Feb 22. What a shock...I still want to know when someone will tell me it's all a big elaborate, painful prank - anyone?
Although I am fine telling other people I have breast...

No we don't know where you are or where you have been becasue each person's story is different. Amazingly for a 'disease" (for want of a better description) that seems to have one name it must have a zillion variations as I have not been able to find 2 people with the same combination of issues and/or treatments. It is all a bit of trying this and having a fall back position from my perspective.
This site seems to be a good place to vent as said above, never thought I would be joining in as I am the strong one in our household and everyone else has to be considered and protected. As to work,, the thought of not going never crossed my mind and in fact caused an argument with the oncologist who suggested I should be thinking about myself first and work somewhere else down the line. We have come to a pact on that one and he now accepts that my decision to reduce hours but remains is likely the healthy one for me. Staying at home would not be good and I think it keeps you feeling better. Flexibility from your employer however is the key to this one and I fortunately have that in spades.
Sorry to hear about your bleed etc but that will pass and perhaps is making you rest that extra bit at the moment which is what your body needs. Perhaps you can use this time to contact the TV stations and enquiry about their programming and make some suggestions?? They certainly can use some help - obviously they don't think a lot of us are watching or caring about it, or are perhaps just programmed Stepford Wives/zombies.
Take care, of yourself first, and move forward as you can.
Cheers,
Jaci
