New diagnosis

Yeah definitely have to try ,I’ve got to put my big girl pants on and fight … how are you coping with your break up that’s such a long time . I was with my ex husband for 30 years before we split but met an amazing man 13 years ago who has been with me through everything .. what hospital do you attend for your treatment , I’m in Southend , it’s actually the hospital I work in , well not at the moment I’ve been off since end of march … Polly xx

So I'm at Bournemouth and they are utterly amazing there - different breed cancer care is!! Break up was hard and only moved back home in Jan and got my diagnosis around May so been difficult to saythe least but am glad you have got someone ️️

Bourmouth is a place I’ve never been to but heard it’s loverly there that’s good it’s amazing treatment that’s what you need , yes that’s a tough one for you but it will make you a stronger person that’s for sure , and you will find the right person . And have a different outlook on life I did after my stroke , I’ve mellowed so much I was quite firey , I always took so much shite from people and wouldn’t say anything was walked over , but then I turned , but after the stroke I’ve completely mellowed out and like myself so much more , but now this diagnosis god knows what I’m gonna be lol , hopefully you have a good evening ..

You will be much stronger and more resilient than ever before!! Have they told you what will happen after chemo?

Think it’s lumpectomy then maybe radiotherapy need lymph node clearance too and hormone stuff and maybe more chemo that’s all the stuff they were talking about but even to me that seems too much what about yours Polly xx

Very similar actually but without the hormone stuff as I am HER2 positive so the drugs I have in my leg are fully targeted to get rid of HER2 positive cancer. I also need lymph nodes cleared. Have they ever given you your stage? 

They said it was stage 2 xx

I don't think ive had a stage but I know it's grade 3 and I think she said it would be 2/3
