I am 66 and was diagnosed 4 weeks ago following a routine mammogram. I had a small lump deep in my left breast and had a lumpectomy yesterday. I’m feeling fine and am so impressed by the wonderful care I have had from the NHS. I’m joining this group to share experiences as I’m only at the start of this journey. I am also a full time carer for my husband who has physical disabilities,vascular dementia and can do nothing for himself. We have had a stressful time arranging for carers to come in and look after him while I am out of action. I have support during the day from my daughters who are staying with us for now, so I feel very fortunate. I look forward to sharing thoughts and experiences with others in similar situations.
Hi bookbird
Welcome to the forum and sorry to hear that you have been diagnosed with breast cancer and that your husband isn't well.
Wishing you the best of luck with your treatment.
