Beginning to dwell on getting op date today. In itself not a bad day, everyone needs a bad one. Can't maintain sunny positivity and gratitude all the time. I know that they'll test my lymph nodes when under, with the dye. I know they'll remove any that are effected. Then i will need chemo and a drug for the HER2 status. Confused as to whether that is classed as chemo too, (causes hairloss with side effects.) I know i can ask Macmillan but hoping tomorrow i resume my positivity and one day at a time status.
Meeting a friend who had mastectomy a fortnight ago for coffee tomorrow for mutual support.
I've swam 3 of the last 4 days which is my best therapy. I'm keeping busy seeing friends this week. Waiting for the calendar page to turn. Wondering if hubby and i will get our weekend away booked late July.
Chatted with hubby earlier, had some cancer chat. (We don't dwell on it much.) Hubby went on macmillan site today first time. Scared himself silly. Big hugs, supporting each other. He's my world and he knows he can't cure me. Going to keep focused on us buying a boat soon.
