Well not sure why i am here today, got the dreaded words delivered in December 2010, yes you have breast cancer, this is what we are going to do.......blah blah blah, now 6 months on, chemo finished, just starting radiotherapy and i can finally say I HAVE HAD ENOUGH!!!!!!

Hair loss, mouth ulcers, weight gain, all such a rude interuption to my usually very organised life, but why has it hit me know and i feel that i really can;t cope with this anymore, so close to the end of treatment but my patience has finally run out? Is this normal/shock????

Have arranged to get counselling but a waiting list as expected.... I just want to be back to normal with clothes that are not tight all the time... vain i know but thats me..... HELP????

Just think of now as 'The NEW normal'. Okay, things are never going to be EXACTLY the same; your body has been through a lot of changes; your mind/brain/feelings have been through the mincer, the mangle, and back again for a good kicking! But also remember YOU have given cancer a big kick too!
