Hi! I had my breast cancer confirmed on 25th March. Still trying to come to terms with all the terms, treatments, tests etc. Never a perfect time to find out you have cancer but also dealing with the death of my father on the 26th.
I’m so sorry about your Dad and now this to deal with I was told that I had breast cancer on the 24th March and officially diagnosed this week. My brain is overwhelmed with shock and all the informaon out there. I’ve been lucky to find this group it’s got me through some dark times the last couple of weeks and given me hope and comfort. There’s also an AWAKE group for all of us struggling to s
ep. If you need to talk please message me or just say on here so many kind lovely people. Please let me know how you get on and I wish you well . Lisa X

It definitely helps these ladies understand what we are going through. Be gentle with yourself you have so much going on. I wish you the very best with your treatment and here if you need to talk X️
That's so unlucky , to be diagnosed one day and the next to have a loved one pass away. It's great you've find this site as it really helps to talk with others who have been or are going through what you are. I was diagnosed mid December 2020 and am all done with treatment now and cancer free. I am taking a daily tablet for the next 5 years but other than that no more treatment. Breast cancer is very treatable these days so try and hang onto that thought. It's what got me through, that and reading all the other positive stories on this website and messaging with people who were going through treatment at the same time as me. The AWAKE group is great, lots of us o there on and off chatting about whatever we feel like. Lots of support for newbies from ladies who are part way through treatment and from some who are cancer free.
Wishing you and Honey1810 all the best with your journeys. xx
Thank you so much I’m so happy to read all is well for you and that brings me comfort and hope.X️
