REALITY
Well its been 3 mths since my diagnosis and today I looked in the mirror and thought. Bloody hell I do have bc. No hair and no boobs. Dont know what has been in my head these last 3 mths. Not cancer....
I think we all have moments where the reality crashes in to us. I was talking to a family member the other day about my next oncologist appointment & the thought that immediately followed was " how is it that I need to see an oncologist". In some ways it's still not real, ten months after diagnosis, & after chemo, surgery & radiotherapy.
I always found days 4-7 or 8 post chemo were my worst, physically & emotionally.
Take care, Lyn
