Morning.

Found Beryl my booby bump on 12th Dec. I am booked in for surgery on Fri 18th March with chemo starting 6 weeks after.

I have been given lots of info and trying to take each day as it comes. Staying positive is my way of dealing and seems to be working well for me.

I do have worries and get scarred, but I am accepting this is my treatment pathway to recovery and therefore it has to be OK.

Hello to fellow breastie Heart

  • Love the name but sorry you have cancer, this site is full of amazing women, thousands of which have been where you are now so if you need support you are in the right place. Do you know which chemo you will be getting? if you post it here you will get some really useful advice and support.  Love from Ann

  • Hi, sorry to hear of your diagnosis, but Ann is right, lots of fabulous support on here.  Positivity was a big help to me too, good luck with your treatment

    I haven't been told the full details regards to the chemo i will be receiving yet - but have been reassured this will happen over the coming few weeks

    For now I am concentrating on getting through tomorrow - its really strange - I think I am doing really well and mentally prepared and then just find my uncontrollably crying.

     I have my bagged packed ready and have read all my info leaflets, got a hot soak in the bath planned for later with my favourite takeaway for tea - my hubby is insisting on feeding me up (I guess that's his way of coping) - oh and I think my pooch is picking up on something as she hasn't left my lap all day bless her 

    Any other suggestions breasties x

  • Hi and best wishes for tomorrow

  • Hiya

    hugs

  • Good luck with the surgery tomorrow. 

    Bless your husband and your pooch, both looking out for you.

    Doing the best thing taking each day as it comes, but if you feel like crying then let it all out.

    • The past is a memory, the future a dream, the moment is now. 
  • Best of luck with your operation tomorrow.

  • I found setting the tone of grim determination helped me.  I focussed on just getting through that door as I knew that once I did I would just be pulled through the day and eventually it would be over and I would be home.  It was so lovely to get home.  Best of luck.  I'll be willing you on in the morning xx
