Here, here ....

The trouble with these results and the overwhelming emotions involved, can not be felt, untill it happens to them ... everyone else can empathise or imagine ... but in a lot of cases , where the patient has little support, they feel so lost .. like in a huge maze that no one is helping them through ...

I know everything is stretched ... staff and Drs and oncology teams are doing the best they can under pressure to get the right result and plan of action if tests are positive .. most are amazing, and how they do this heartbraking job , day in and out, I can't imagine ... 

But oh my, if only those that could change the system, knew how terrifying the wait is .. they would put something in place .. esp hard when that patient has young children ... looking back over my almost two years .. the biopsy/ the radio active scans ... the masectomy  ... the emergency op a few hours later .. the draining of fluid twice ... the op a few months later for two more lumps that were calsification ..

Which was the hardest part ... the waiting for results each time ... but I was so lucky to have the most amazing family that held me up ... but yes telemando ... if we could change one thing on here, I'm with you ... someone to give everyone waiting,  a number to call if they need it ... a safety net ...
