Ground Zero Today

Hello all, today I have been diagnosed with breast cancer and I'm in shock! I'm 57 years old and live in Yorkshire. I will be seeing the surgeon next week but in the meantime I need to find a way to quiet my mind, does anyone have any suggestions? Many thanks in advance. X x

    Hi Jem.

    Try to keep active. Talk to trusted people about your fears and feelings. Spoil yourself and don't be afraid to 'enjoy' a good cry or rant. Praying for you now

    Hi Jamoza

    many thanks for your reply, I'm keeping active as walking the dogs, golf and going to the gym has been part of my routine and the nurse said to try to keep my routine and keep busy. Nothing shuts my brain being in overload, I've been doing some mindfulness but I have to admit I've asked the GP for some anti anxiety meds!

    I'm seeing the surgeon on Tuesday so fingers crossed.
