All Done!!

Less than one minute read time.

Well judging by the previous posts 12th july was a good day for a lot of people. I also finished my treatment today! After being diagnosed with breast cancer in May 2010, I have since had a mastectomy and reconstruction, chemo,radiotherapy and 12 months herceptin, the last of which was Tuesday. I have to see my onco in 6 weeks for follow up, but treatment is done! I have yet to have further surgery, but this will be in a few months time, I came home from the hospital yesterday, got straight on the internet and booked my holidays, so I am off for 2 weeks lazing about in the sunshine (smothered in sun block of course) . At the beginning of this journey I was totally bewildered by it all and scared of the road ahead, but here I am 14 months later, and I've done it!! For all you ladies who are just starting this journey, I wish you all the very best of luck, but remember it is do-able (is that a word?) and the time will pass quicker than you anticipate.

Sending love and best wishes to all,

Pixie xx

    I also have to have further preventative operations. My word was and still is "Cancervive".

    Great to hear you are through it and survived. Hope you have a wonderful holiday, any room for me in your suitcase? Take Care and keep up the good work of looking after yourself xxx

    Thanks for all your kind comments and encouragement. Everyone on here is so nice and I don't think I could have remained so positive throughout all this without you.
