Hi, my name is Linda and I was on the same table as you at Raelene Boyle's 60th recently. Did not really get chance to talk, it was hard to speak with all the speeches and music. Anyway I thought I was doing pretty good, orginally diagnosed in 2004, had lumpectomy, chemo, radio and all good till March 2010 when diagnosed with secondary in lymph nodes. Had Abraxane and Herceptin (had to stop Herceptin, affecting heart). All seemed good till couple weeks ago when diagnosed with brain tumour. Sent me into a spin. Surgery, possible but tumour in deep and there are risks, as with any surgery. About to start 6 radio treatment to brain. Positive this will help, not sure if they will still want to take it out. Bit on edge at moment, inspiration or what you know would help.
PS, I was sitting on your right (next to spare chair), in the bright pink long dress, (I did dance a bit that night, had a blast!)
PS. After reading your story in beacon, you are inspiring!!!
