hi i'm Terri and i am 27 years old. On the 7th of January 2011 i was told that i have grade 2 Breast Cancer in my left breast. I live at home with my partner and 3 children (2 girls and a boy 9,3 and 2yrs) my 3 year old son has just been (on 23rd of september 2010 ) diagnosed with Autism. I do not know anything about cancer and do not know anyone with cancer. It was a huge shock to myself and my whole family.
On the 10th of January i had a miscarriage (which added to the stress of the breast cancer diagnosis was not nice) and i felt like i could not cope. It comes in waves. I knew that i have to stay strong for my partner and children but i just want to know i will come out the other end of this nightmare. I feel that keeping this blog will help me and maybe help someone else
