Hi and a warm welcome to our little corner of the Online Community. Here you'll find a lovely group of supportive ladies who have all been exactly where you are now. Any cancer diagnosis brings all sorts of stress and fears and if anyone can hold your hand and reassure you we will. We're all at the start, in the middle or the end of what can only be described as a roller-coaster ride. The ride no-one wants to get on.
It wasn't until I'd read further down your post I realised you're from America - the date formats confused me!! To us Brits you were diagnosed on 3rd May!! (Not 5th March)
Great to hear your op all went well and histology revealed your were stage 1A and grade 1, no further treatment needed except follow-ups. Some ladies have found it difficult to accept they had and beat cancer so there's quite a useful forum here Life after cancer you might like to take a look at.
If you ever want to ask any of us any questions please come back and do so. There's always someone around and we can offer a shoulder to cry on, a hand to hold or listen to a rant, we’re here for you.
It’s always good to talk and the Macmillan Support Services provides lots of information, support, financial guidance or just a listening ear. It's free to call on 0808 808 00 00 8am to 8pm, 7 days a week. Have a look to see what is available by Clicking here .
There is also an Ask an Expert section, but you should allow two working days for replies from our expert team.
