You can get through this Rach!
I am new to this and thought it may help me get through the tough time ahead of me....
It has been a week since my routine check up, biopsy and being told I have lobular carcinoma. I have always been conscience of breast cancer as both my Nanna's had it. One had a masectomy and the other unfortunately died from the disease, when I was very young.
My Hubby and I are keeping positive and I am finding it difficult that my Family and Friends are upset for us and were quite emotional when we told them. But, it is nice to know we are very much loved by them. We have cried about it, especially when we were told as we are trying to start a family.
This year has proven to be a very difficult one, so far. In January, we were told we were pregnant and in Feb (Valentines Day) we were told at the dating scan that our Little Angel had no heartbeat. Easter came and so did the death of my Grandfather. My Nan passed away 4yrs ago and my Mum hasn't been the same since, so you can imagine what grief she went through with the loss of her Father.
So, the past 3 months have been busy trying to get back on track and try again for baby #1. When I was diagnosed last week, all I could think of was, oh no what if we are pregnant this month..... I had a blood test and it came back negative for pregnancy. So, that has been taken care of for us, 1 less thing we have to deal with.
Tomorrow, we have our first appointment with the Specialist and hopefully we will have a plan for our next move in this journey.
One Day at a Time.
