Hi all, to my disbelief , I, like many more women have been diagnosed with Early Stage Breast Cancer on the 10th Feb 2014.
My Journey has now begun .
I have never felt so alone in my life. Numb i...
Yes Karen I too spent all my time reassuring others. Mind you I felt that I was telling everyone about someone else with BC not me.. We must be connected somehow Karen, I have two adult daughters who handed the news the same as your daughters. I found it really hard telling my daughters especially see my youngest one battling to come to terms with the news. Me staying strong was for her which inturn was good for me. My 81yr old mother was the last to know as I delayed telling her as she had not long come out of hospital with very high blood pressure. Well never underestimate 81yr olds. She took it better than any other family member or freinds. I was stressing for nothing Cant trust them...she said 'I'm old, nothing shocks me these days, I can handle it'. lol. As far as my sister was concerned (she is an obsesive googler ) so I had to ask her not to forward me any links regarding BC as at that stage as I didnt really know what stage my cancer was at or what treatment I was to have. That would have been so hard for her as google is her life. She refrained..which was appreciated.
February wasnt a good month for either of us by the sounds of it. Good luck with your re-excision in May, I will be thinking of you and of cause your results with return a clear margin. Be postiive and as you said every day is a futrher step forward. You show em luv !!! Thank you for your advise and leads regarding skin care. Please Karen, keep me updated on your progress, I will be thinking of you. We all have guides that look after us and I am certain yours will be doing their job. Take care Neen xx
