Hi Merilla
I too felt overwhelmed when I was diagnosed in 2003 with a grade 2 invasive ductal carcinoma. It was Christmas and a horrible time to spend with a new diagnosis when every one else was happy. I was lucky to have a friend who had been through treatment and she was fabulous. Even as a nurse(midwife) it was a foreign world with surgery, chemo and radio treatments. we each handle things in our own way and there is no right or wrong way. Some days are great and others horrid (like life really!) More good days than bad. Hope you have your My Journey Kit organised. This site is a fabulous place to chat and meet others. Take Care Jo
