H i Karen,
As a woman who was diagnosed with Advanced Breast Cancer as her first diagnosis, who will be 60 in 21 days, has a loving and supportive partner,I can only say THANK YOU for putting into words, what I could not.
EVERYTHING you have touched on is also a part of my life as well.
I applaud you.
Every single item you have listed is relevant, the only comment that I would add,
Many of us with ABC live in a rural enviroment and as such do not have the ability to access some of the wonderful initiatives that are in place for city ladies, or if we can access them, it involves considerable time and distance to get there, as rural women, we need a voice, which BCNA does help with, and yes I agree, we have no idea how many women in this country have progressed from Early Breast Cancer on to ABC,
Thankyou, as a survivor of 27 months, your words give me comfort and hope, I am not alone, and I plan on being around for a lot longer I can assure you.
