Roller coaster ride!
Had my first surgery ever!
All went well and when I met my surgeon the next Monday, I was told I had the perfect little cancer, that was a perfect target. My margins were clear and it hadn't spread...

Hi Leanne,
Glad to hear surgery is done and margins are clear. You have a fantastic outcome in this disease, yes it's a huge detour in what we have all planned in our lives. I've had surgeries and chemo and now embarking on the radiotherapy stage of treatment. I view it like the light at the end of a tunnel. Of course there's hormone therapy treatment for me too and later on down the track a reconstructed boob for my 50th! I can relate to the comments about 'looking so healthy'. Most people don't realise that we don't tend to look sick anyway with bc, it's the treatment that makes us look sick.
This is a crappy roller coaster ride, some days are worse than others. Hopefully the good days outnumber the bad during your treatment. I enjoyed getting out to walk and feeling the winter sun on my face, even when I was queasy.
REmmember to come back on here as there's always someone to talk to. You're never alone in this
