Re: It's starting to sink in.
@Jo_Ellen20, I can relate to those feelings. I kept wondering why I felt that way and wondering what was wrong with me? It wasn't until after chemo, surgery and radiation ended that I finally processed what I had been through. Reach out for professional help if you need it, I had to and it really helped. I cannot imagine how hard it is during this Covid pandemic, big hugs xx9Views1like0CommentsRe: Newly diagnosed
BC has such terrible timing doesn't it? I waited till I had a few more facts and my treatment plan before I told my daughter, I just wanted to be able to answer questions calmly. However she lives in the same state and I could see her anytime, must be so hard when you are living in different states. Like you I told my sisters as one has had BC and I knew I could count on her for guidance. The other is also very supportive. After the surgeon visit you will know a lot more which may make that decision easier or maybe when you see your daughter you will feel the timing is right. Congratulations on your new grandson and good luck with the surgery.13Views1like0CommentsRe: Triple Negative breast cancer diagnosis
@Mkdazed, I understand how you feel it is a lot to process all at once, I am also triple negative and it took me months to process. I was diagnosed 4/12/2018 and started chemo on 20/12/2018. When I started chemo I didn't know what type/stage/grade cancer I had. I think I was still in shock. My head was still trying to process the words of my oncologist - it's agressive and quite big. I arrived at chemo in a complete daze and they were fantastic at answering a million questions and helping me process stuff Itruly did not understand. I don't think I would have managed as well without those lovely human beings or this forum. I have just had my first annual scans (delayed for various reasons) and have got the all clear. There is a light at the end of the tunnel and maybe you will cry a lot on the way but that's okay because in time you will laugh too :) Good luck with your treatment, we are all here for you. xx23Views4likes0Comments
