My story
After having clear scans in Nov 2012 and a clear breast check by a Dr on Gynae ward of local public hospital in Feb, I found a largish lump in my right breast in April.
Was diagnosed with Grade 3 ...
Hello Lala
Lovely to meet you but I am truly sorry you have to be here. You have come to the best place for some love and support and advice when needed.
Have you been in contact with BCNA to receive your Hopes and Hurdles pack. You can order it online thru resources at the bottom of the page or phone BCNA direct. I know I harp on these resources but I think everyone who has used them have found them invaluable. Plus there is so much information in them.
It does sound like you are pretty much on your own. Which state do you live in? I am in Perth. There are so many supportive groups out there in all different areas that will assist you or support you if you need. I am so glad you do have very supportive friends and some family near by. We are here to chat with you whenever you need. You can use the Search mode at the top of the page and type in what you are looking for and posts from other girls relating to that will come up. There is a great post called what has helped you through your journey. I do know there are different groups on the network of BCNA which relate to different forms of cancer. You can always contact BCNA by phone and the girls there will be more than willing to point you in the right direction. They are not there for medical advice but will definitely be able to assist you with any support you need.
Sounds like you have been doing it tough already with your other illness but I am sure it has made you stronger and hopefully that will help you fight this latest setback for you. It is good that it has all happened so quickly so you didn't have the time to worry over it all but I am sure it was a huge shock for you to get the latest diagnosis.
I am unable to say the words to show you that you are not alone and that we will support you in any way we can. We are here for you. You have touched my heart.
I am thinking of you, lots of love always, Mich xoxoxo
