Whoops!  I missed Wednesday again (someone needs to remind me! ;).

So, it's well and truly time for this week's Get Connected post.

    Hi my name is Debbie I am 47 years old I have three adult children and work full time.  After my second mammogram  in May 2010  (first in 2008) I received a call back and my world was turned upside down.   I had a mastectomy and an axillary clearance on 20th July 2010 due to ILC of my left breast, the tumour was 7cm and 7 of the 10 lymph nodes removed tested positive.  I start 6 months of chemo on Thursday following by 5 weeks of radio, then hormone therapy. Waiting for the test results and the unknown has been a living nightmare, I am drowning in emotion even though I have a a fantastic partner, family and friends.  I'm trying to take one day at a time but feel that connecting with others who have gone down a similar path and surivived will give me hope....................
