Never thought it was cancer, thought I was wasting the docs time. No one in my family ever had cancer. Just dimples made me get it checked.
sent for mammogram and ultrasound still felt that I was wasting their time. Asked radiologist if it was a cyst, she said no, she said cancer. Omg I'm not a fraud after all. I wasn't going to get it checked.
Have been a whirlwind ever since. More tests bone, ct and mri scans. 3cm lump in left breast, still feels like someone else story. Never felt so alone, everyone else sits with their partner, all alone mum past last year, kids at school. Seeing Mr Daoud on cause of treatment Wednesday. Will get it sorted, I'm sure its not going to get me down, got to make sure my kids are ok.
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
