    VaIN 3 - results from biopsy. Will be having an appointment with a consultant soon but nothing mentioned about the procedure I'm meant to have. Is this right?

    Caring for mum - can't bear the thought of what's to come, especially after the prognosis that was given has now been passed. How do I get through this?
