New TNBC

I'm smiling :) You've brought back some lovely memories. Yes I read the "We're going on a Bear Hunt" book to my kids and I remember the book called "The Dark Dark Tale" the one with the dark dark room etc. and in the dark dark cupboard there's a mouse or something like that. For me this BC journey was a dark dark tunnel and at the end of the dark dark tunnel there's a light. My BC was discovered through a routine mammogram which I nearly put off because I was so busy at work but my husband urged me to go and I'm so glad he did because I didn't have any symptoms whatsoever. Can't think of where I might be if I didn't get that mammogram. It's been a dark tunnel sometimes but there have been good things too like you said. I've spent more time with my family and stopped stressing about work and things that don't matter. I've learnt to meditate and relax more. I appreciate the little things in life and I don't take them for granted anymore. I've stopped to smell the roses :) I'm glad your son's 21st was a great night. Sometimes just getting on with things is the right thing to do. I had our extended family's Boxing Day party to contend with five days after my diagnoses and the hardest thing for me was telling everybody over again when it was still so unreal to me. But here I am finished another Boxing Day celebration and I feel great. I'm sure this year will speed by for you too Karen. Love Janey xxx
