Waiting for surgery
Hi everyone. I was just wondering how long everyone had to wait for surgery . I'm having a double mastectomy on Wednesday and that will be three weeks after my diagnosis and four weeks since my ultras...

Hi Sharon - just wanted to say good luck for Wednesday. The waiting is certainly the hardest part although keep focussed on knowing that they will be gone and then you can get on with dealing with whatever else needs to be dealt with.
After surgery, keep on top of the pain and when you get home, make sure you say YES to any offers of help with no guilt.
My mother had BC at 36 then again at 48 and is now a healthy cancer free 72 yr old. So is always better to try to focus on the good stories and not the "not so good".
Remember the sun is always shining even on a cloudy day - just because you cant always see it, doesn't mean that it is not there giving us the strength we need.
Keep posting in the forum cause we are all here to listen and help where we can.
Bye
Leanne :-)
(PS I had bilateral mastectomy 2 yrs ago at 45)
