Young with breast cancer...

Hello everyone,

back in december at just 25 i was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer. I first turned to this site to try and find people of my own age, and struggled somewhat. As i approached my first treatment session in January, i realised i didnt really know what to expect. at all.

As of the 10th june i will have finally finished Chemo and will go on to have a lumpectomy, i have started a new light hearted blog about my journey and experience of breast cancer and would like to hope it may help others too. I am really doing it to spread awarness of breast cancer, and to support those perhaps young like myself dealing with cancer, and give reassurance that you are not alone. I also give my take and experience of chemo, the drugs, and the treatment - and will add to the blog weekly.

I am not doing this for the followers, as this blog doesnt work in that way, but as i read more and more about young women and men gettting diagnosed with breast cancer, this blog has given me back some of my confidence, as well as perhaps helping others too. Below is the link.

if it helps at least one person, then i consider that a success. Good luck on all of your journeys to whomever reads this.

 

Best wishes,

  • Hi Hannah...

    Well I'll def follow your journey .. I have always tried to look for and chat to young ones on here ... l tried to start something for young ones to chat like this .. but I came up with nothing ... as I didn't realise the pitfalls ... I E ... people who look on sights for young ones with no good intention ... so there has to be loads of safety rules for that to come about ... we all know those people get everywhere ...

    But if anyone comes on here young and newly diagnosed,  I will tell them of your blog .. that is so amazing .. and you young ones make me feel so humble ... your brave beond imagining .. so glad your getting through your journey .. and I'll be watching you every step ... 

    Thank you for comming here and letting us know, I'm sure you'll help more then you'll ever know ... I can listen, and try to help them ... but l know they just want someone younger to reach out too ..

    Here's to kicking cancers butt ... sending you a vertual hug... chrissie
