Next stop, Oncology Dept...

Less than one minute read time.
Hello One and All, Have a request to send a wee prayer on my behalf as I am scheduled to meet with my Oncologist this Monday, August 17th. I was recently diagnosed with breast cancer( invasive, grade III) this past June. An annual mammogram picked up a cluster and the rest is history. I know Dr. Chan is going to lay out a course of treatment for me, and I am getting nervous with the prospects. Am scheduled to start rad. in September. Thank you in advance for your well wishes and prayers. My best to you, as well, on your journey with cancer. Luna

    Hi Luna just read your profile,  good luck with everything, im recently diagnosed with tonsil cancer and secondary lymph node (neck) and am starting treatment on 25th August, radio and chemo, with it being the neck area, there are other things to have to cope with like having a PEG feed fitted to my stomach cos swallowing is going to be difficult they say during and after treatment, and i ve just had a head shield made to wear during treatment so my head is kept perfectly still during treatment too!

    Its all a total nitemare isnt it?  Im 47 but my girls are grown up now but i bet you are questioning yourself, why me? etc., put your faith in those Dr s out to help you and like me you will have lots of support from your family and friends.

    Good Luck

    Jill
