I will win this!

Good Day!

I rang the breast care nurse today because I was unsure about when to go in with a seroma. She said when it was uncomfortable. I said it's not, but then it may be my perception of how things are going anyway. She said to come up to have a look (I was in town anyway) so I went and she drained 300mls - there is more, but she couldn't find the right pocket and as I am not uncomfortable we left it.

So…

• So today - for the first time - I really want to cry.
  Ok, so I have breast cancer. We cut it off and blast the body with chemo and radiotherapy and maybe hormones and all will be well. Some people don't get so tired on chemo or sick they can keep working. This is what I want. To keep functioning.
  I am training to be a nurse – and I will be a really good nurse. Therefore, I should be exempt from this…
