Hi all
Ive just joined this online support group.
I have just recently been diagnosed with secondery breast cancer, and waiting to start treatment.I am scared, though i had breast cancer previously i did not have chemo therapy, so this time round is scary for me.
At this time, its just looking to treat the cancer/ shrink it, as it wont be completly cured, which of course is a major blow and again i am scared.
