Thanks for your comments. I find that even in the short time I have been dealing with this my priorities have changed and the 'whatever' phrase is well and truly part of my everday thoughts! Don't sweat the small or big stuff!

Exersising is a big part of my day too. So these are the big positives of the bc journey.

She said to keep life as normal as as you can and not to isolate yourself from the world. I start chemo next Thursday - 6 cycles, 3 x FEC and 3 x D followed by 6 weeks of radiotherapy so bring it on so I can beat this bc and move on to the next exciting chapter of my life!
