Will it ever be behind me?
Well here I am post surgery, chemo and radiotherapy and happy to say I made it.
Reflectively the whole treatment process was not as bad as I had imagined. Not to say it was easy but with the help ...

Give yourself time Rita:) On the 16 th of this month,I will be exactly 12 months past my last chemo,and it is really only the last 3 or 4 months that I feel that I am back to where I was,emotionally.I am on Tamoxifen,but I don't really get teary any more,like I did in the early days of post treatment.I don't know when it actually became better,so I think it's just a gradual thing.However all the things I had in the early days after treatment finished,I don't have now.These were.... Extreme tiredness,yucky nails( still not great though!! )aching knees,blurry eyesight.All these things just disappeared!!!! Have a great Christmas,and take comfort in the fact that you are doing all you can through healthy eating etc.to keep your body strong.Stay in touch on here also.Cheers xoxRobyn
