Just been diagnosed with secondary metastatic breast cancer in the lymph nodes in neck. Been told it’s advanced, treatable but not curable. Had DCIS breast cancer in 2017 so this new diagnosis is a complete blow. Hoping to connect with others for support and the share experiences.
Gutted we’re all here but love the positivity as this is how I am facing my diagnosis.
Send so much love xx
Hi Seethesunrise, sorry to see you here, but welcome, we're a friendly bunch, I've a different cancer to you, but we are all going on this journey. I'm sure you'll get people with the same diagnoses as you jumping in. Support, friendly, caring and a good sense of humour you will find here. Positive attitude is good but we still get down days and just work through it and get back on the horse again. Keep posting xx

Thank you Moi2. It’s a lot isn’t it? Yes I’ve had a fair few wobbles and certain it’s only the beginning xx
It's a strange old world we've found ourselves in, isn't it? I think the support of other people who understand what we're experiencing is invaluable. I was so sorry to read your cancer has returned but there are some great people here and it really does help to talk to folk who understand. I am new to this group too but it really helps.
Nice to meet you
Thank you. I live by the sea on the Southcoast and one of my things is watching the sunrise on a new day. Gives me new hope xx
Nice to meet you too and I’m sure we will be sharing our story and seeking support xx
