Hi Blackduck, it's very overwhelming when you are first diagnosed. I could interpret my experience as trying to walk through a fog. Time to take a deep breath, and talk to your treatment team. I started by taking a note pad into every appointment and writing things down.

You can also share these books with your family, and they come along the journey with you. I wish you all the best, and send you a big cuddle, Tracey B ??
