Surprisingly Calm

It's a day after my surgery (tumour removal & sentinal node biopsy). I opted to go ahead and have the surgery as soon as I could. I'm assuming that the sentinal node biopsy must have come back ok, since I don't seem to have had them all removed, I THINK someone (the mcgrath breast care nurse) told me in recovery that it was only one node that they took, but I'm not entirely sure. Apart from being a little sore i'm not feeling too bad. I meet with my surgeon again next week and hope that the results will be back and i'll know where I stand from here and what my next step is and how to move forward.

I'm going with the flow of it all at the moment. I have been surprisingly calm through this whole thing, but i guess everyone deals with it their own way. I've joined a club I never wanted to, but i'm glad that this network is here to support each other and that I can check in every now and then to get other peoples stories and perspectives.

  • I would love to say welcome, but this is a club that you don't really want to be a member of.

    This site is fantastic there is so much to learn and so many wonderful supportive women with so many stories to tell and to connect with.

    Whatever your journey we are all here, have a look through the support groups and see what is in your area.

    Stay in touch.
