Hello just been diagnosed with breast cancer as am falling apart

  • Enjoy your time with your grandbabies. And TRY to not think about it. Just be granny/nanna.

    I've been gardening for last few days,... My back hurts as much as my boob!

    Love and hugs xxx

  • Yes I will enjoy them they are all my everything… oh god I was gardening yesterday just painting our planters until I saw a great big spider , then I was done , take a nice long bath and just soak the aches away hugs polly xx

  • I just keep thinking that’s another one done , yes I did say just get it done it’s piece of mind for you and for me ..I never actually knew that about hormone type cancer wouldn’t be genetic , but good she’s getting it sorted xx

  • I'll er, make you grimace/smile. Last time round, not long after surgery, I developed thrush. Both ends.

    Told the nurses, someone, I thought a doc, came around. Opened mouth, as requested. Then said "do you want to check the other end?". 

    Poor cow lost every bit of colour in her..  

    She was a dentist

  • Morning oh I can just imagine her face I would have laughed so much… I’ve got a weird sense of humour, it’s even worse since the stroke … well I didn’t sleep well again lastnight I’ve still got this awlful huge black cloud over my head thinking about the cancer being everywhere and I go Friday and they say sorry it’s too far gone there’s nothing we can do for you … my mind is all over the place , I might go to my work to see my manger and get the ball rolling for my pension , I’ve decided I’m going to take it now rather than wait … just incase what I’m thinking is true … if you don’t mind me asking how far on this journey are you, I’ve read threads and I love your positivity it’s inspirational… xx

  • Not even had diagnosis YET. Appt on Thursday... 

    As for black cloud? Been there. Done that. Why do you think I put happy clappy on, on here? Big believer in fake till you make it me. 

    Love and hugs to all xxx

  • Well good luck for Thursday I really mean it since I was told a week ago I’ve been awlful how did you lift yourself , I know if I go to docs he will put me on antidepressants and I don’t want them xx

  • Been on not happy pills for years due to, er, issues? Spinal condition 3 ops, hubby suddenly died. In laws died.

    Then 2015/6 the granddaddy of them all. SCC on my tongue. Thought it was a spot or I'd bitten it on one of my regular falls... Docs antibiotics. 2 weeks. Docs different antibiotics. Then referred to max fax.  

    Then the sentence out of no where. "You're on the target cancer pathway". That was end of November. So within a month that includes Christmas, multiple tests of umpteen different types and up to McMillan UCLH + UCLH for surgery on the 7th January 

    Christmas was fun that year. We all have dips and we will all help each other through them

    Love and hugs to all xxx

  • I’m so sorry I really am , so Thursday results are for it somewhere else … when my mum was diagnosed she wouldn’t talk about it to us or anyone and died 5 weeks later that’s what’s in my mind with me xx

  • Talk to us. Someone will probably be on this chat. Might not be instantaneous but someone will see/hear & understand and probably get back to you 

    Love and hugs to all xxx
