Can't sleep have mastectomy opp today xx

I just can't sleep, I'm feeling positive about the outcome of having the surgery,I'm very worried about when I get home to my 5 beautiful children,I have very little support, and so worried about my recovery and not being able to do what mum's do, which is everything! I'm hoping my older children will understand and start helping out a little more!! It's the unknown of what is ahead, I have no idea, hope everyone is as well as they can be, Lindsay xx

  • Hi Lindsay,

    I hope today's surgery went well and that you're not in too much pain.

    I'm having a mastectomy tomorrow. I probably won't sleep much tonight either.

    Whilst I'd remained focused, organising  things preping the house for my return from hospital, sorting things for school etc, today was a hard day. I'm scared.  Scared of surgery although it is a necessity of course, and like you I am worried about my recovery and the impact on my 6 year old. 

    I've read some reassuring posts on here so fingers crossed.

    i wish you a speedy recovery with minimal impact on your family.

    take care.
