Can not believe it.
Shock, denial, anger - cant imagine how I can move towards acceptance. Newly Dx. Initially was stage 2, then told stage 3 and now looking at stage 4 with lung mets. What the! This roller coaster is ...
@Mez_BCNA Please move LJS to her own page so that people can see she is a newbie. Thank you. @LJS People will come online and help out. The diagnosis is hard to accept. Once you have a plan going forward it helps. People telling you to be strong doesn't help. It isn't happening to them! Go for a drive to the middle of nowhere and scream. Loud and long. Getting that out relieves some of the pressure. I just went out into the middle of my suburban street and screamed. We live in such a "caring" society that no-one did a thing about it and they didn't know I had just been diagnosed. Just as well I wasn't being attacked by someone. My diagnosis came nine months after a mammogram all clear and like you, I was healthy. Sending a huge virtual hug.
