You poor darl,bc right on your birthday and Christmas.I was so sorry to hear your news but welcome to this network.You will get lots of support and info here.The unknown and the waiting are the worst bits and all you can do during those times is to keep REALLY.REALLY busy.So hopefully Christmas will be enough of a distraction for you. I've had breast cancer twice(in the same breast)- 1st time was in 2003 and then again in 2010. I am fine now and enjoying life so there will be light at the end of that dark tunnel you have now entered.When I got my second diagnosis,I waited until I had details/plan to tell family and friends.Obviously my husband and 2 daughters knew straight up but I was able to tell my poor elderly mum that yes,I had bc but it was early again and this is what will happen.There is no right or wrong way to tell others so go with what your gut tells you. I know it's a crap way to start the new year but your pink sisters will be here for you.
sending hugs,Tonya xx
