Hi, I'm Sam, 31 and mum to a 7 year old boy. I have recently been diagnosed with triple negative grade 3 invasive ductal carcinoma that has spread to nearby lymph nodes. Currently awaiting for scan results to see how far its spread (scary) people keep telling me how young I am now which is strange never thought of myself as young anymore until this hit. I'm struggling with my diagnosis and knowing at some point soon (I've been told itll be chemo before surgery and I will lose all my hair) I'm going to have to tell my boy
