Hi there

Unfortunately I was diagnosed with Triple Negative breast cancer yesterday and I'm just here looking to connect with others with experience of similar really, although I do have a previous history skin cancer also so am wanting to share with and support others going through that also. My bio contains all of my experience to date.

It's all very scary and I'm swinging between it not feeling real and it crashing over me in waves! The great news is the team at the hospital seem to be really on the ball with this so I feel very lucky in that sense. One of the biggest kickers is that I'm due to start my new job this coming Monday and have just told my new manager the news this morning. Just waiting on her coming back with her thoughts on this as it means needing time off for appointments, surgery and treatment, but fingers are crossed that I can go ahead and just work as normally as I possibly can.

Hope all out there are being supported and if I can help anyone, please feel free to ask anything.

All the best

  • Hi  

    Your 'journey' with cancer is almost exactly the same as mine! I was diagnosed with melanoma in 2016, had a BCC removed in 2021 and was diagnosed with TNBC in 2022.

    I'm happy to share my TNBC experience with you if there's anything you want to ask.
