    Hi,

    Welcome to the group no one wants to belong too. I was diagnosed in Oct 09 and had mastectomy in Nov 09 and am now half way through my chemo. You will find great supprt on here and the being scared does get less once the shock has worn off. Keep positive and if there is anything you want to ask then please feel free.

    take care love Terri xxx

    hi as terri said... "welcome to the club no one wants to join but you`ll be gad you did", you`ll find lots of support on here, you`ll also maybe be surprised to find yourself laughing, and supporting others, your in a scary place right now, and we are here for you... chemo isnt always as bad as you are thinking it will be... the nurses are usually lovely and you can bring anyone you like with you ... at one of mine i had my 4 sisters with me ha ha ha.... the nurses didnt mind....

    good luck with all of it
