Re: Welcome New Members
Hi Arpie and Mez. Thank you so much for sharing your advice and insights and all the resources to look into. I look forward to delving in, albeit with a little trepidation! Lots of info and lots of triggers. I guess that's part of the process though. Your help is much appreciated.16Views0likes0CommentsRe: Welcome New Members
Hello thank you for the welcome 😊 Not a group I ever thought I would be part of but so good that this forum exists. Connecting with other people who are on a similar journey helps alleviate some of the feelings of fear and loneliness. I was diagnosed in pregnancy and so a lot of my difficult emotions have been around grieving the loss of the birth I wanted and the way I want to parent and the way I thought this period of my life would be like...sadly a lot less joy and a lot more sadness and anxiety and being apart from bub for appointments and chemo and rest from effects of chemo etc. Just wondering if there are any other members who have a similar story who would be keen to chat?15Views0likes0Comments
Groups
Young women & breast cancer
This group is for young women affected by breast cancer. In the context of breast cancer treatment, ‘young’ usually refers to women who are pre-menopausal. Here, you can connect with others who understand the unique challenges that come with a diagnosis at a younger age. We talk about things like fertility, pregnancy, early menopause, ovarian suppression, relationships, and the emotional impact of treatment and recovery. Whether you're newly diagnosed or further along in your journey, this is a safe space to ask questions, share experiences, and support one another. You are not alone during this uncertain and overwhelming time.Let's talk: vaginas, menopause & me
PRIVATE GROUP. This group is a safe, supportive space to talk about sexual health and emotional wellbeing during and after breast cancer.
