Hi,
Newly diagnosed following mammogram/biopsy grade 2 bilateral breast cancer in breast tissue and lymph node. My thoughts ok, so this isnt good but I will get through this! MRI and CT scans show its already spread to Sternun so non curable! Bone scan booked and anxiously and eagerly awaitng this and getting results and can move on to can see Onoclogist and get treatment plan.
Feeling devastated, overwhelmed, thoughts racing and just can not switch them off. But following a lovely and reassuring call from a lady from Maggies today who speclises in secondary cancer I'm off to see her and benefits advisor tomorrow. I'm hopeful that as from tommorrow afternoon I will get my positvity bsck and will see living with non-curable cancer can be done, I can live for good amount of years with this. I've only had one short phone call with Maggies, but that one short call has hugely helped me, I'm so thankful we have such amazing charities to support and lift us out of such a dark place.
S.x
Hi Miss Peregrine just wanted to check in and see how you are doing. I hope you're working a way through this and getting the support you need x
Hey, the limbo stage is horrid, isn't it. All the running around for appointments, waiting and worrying, it was the worst for me and I was much better when I had a plan. There was so much out of my control that my only response was to really focus on the things I could control and I focussed on diet and exercise. I walked loads, and was motivated by simply the fact that this was in my gift to decide. I hope you can get a little of your motivation back soon. Take care x
