Results Day

Hi Sheelagh, was going to wish you well on the Awake forum but great you’ve opened a separate thread. 

Everything is crossed for you today, please do let us know how you get on.

Big hugs and positive vibes.

I’m gutted.  The hospital just phoned and I need another MRI to confirm the clip in they put in my right breast is in the correct position before surgery which means it’s have Cancer in both breasts.  So have to wait another week for results.  Feel I’m drowning 

Sorry for the grammar errors

Oh hon, I am so very sorry to hear this. So they definitely have confirmed you have it in both breasts?

Have you also posted on the breast cancer forum?

My husband had head & neck cancer (tonsil, tongue and lymph nodes) so apart from giving you all my sympathy and support, I have limited knowledge about breast cancer. But I am more than happy to chat to you and give you virtual hugs.

Do you have anybody at home that can help you cope with all this. You must be worried sick.

Ah sorry ignore that, I see this is the breast cancer forum. Not sure why I'm seeing it as I don't belong. Perhaps it's because I chatted to you on another thread. 

Hopefully somebody with more experience will pick this up as well xxx 

The virtual hug means everything.  She didn’t say the words.  She didn’t have to.  I heard what she wasn’t saying.  Sounds like your poor husband has. Even through the mill x

Yes. It's been dreadfully frightening, the treatment was brutal and the recovery worse but we're getting there. 

Anything I can do to help I will. Always here to listen. Xxx

Same ️

Oh Sheelagh, I'm so sorry to hear this love.  Like Debs, my experience is also with head and neck cancer but I mentioned in an earlier post to you about my mum discovering a lump when she was 86.  It was in her left breast and when she got the diagnosis, she just told them to take it off, which they did, resulting in a mastectomy.  Her recovery was remarkable considering her age at the time, and she told them she didn't want any reconstructive surgery, again due to age.  She was never troubled again and lived well for many years after.

Sorry I can't offer practical help my lovely, but sending another virtual hug and hoping you've got good support to help you through this.

Take good care, love Gill xx 

Hi Deb11 

This is the cancer chat group, not the breast cancer group which is why you saw the post. Sheelagh started this thread separate to the wide awake thread, that’s all.
