Hey Girls

I had my chemo in 2007 and remember thinking of it as liquid gold running through my veins like a little pac man eating all the nasties.  Seriously it is crazy but I do think it helped when I was feeling really low.

The thought of losing your hair is also daunting, but you will be happy to know it comes back before you know it and mine initially came back curly and all mousey, but it is now back to what it was before.,

My children were two and four when I was going through chemo and we had just started a new business venture 3 months prior so it was a very busy, strange time but I came out the other side and life is really wonderful now.  I had some reconstruction surgery 3 weeks ago.  So now I have hair and boobs again.  it is a bit of a journey with lots of bumps, turns in the road, but when you get to the summit, the view is great and the small stuff that used to seem important is no longer important.  You will get through this, great that you have each other and your familiies for support.

Glad you found us, but sorry you had to :(
