When I was told I cried all the way home dreading telling my husband & my 81 year old Mum. I decided in the end only to tell Mum when I knew all the facts and what if any treatment I could have once I had that which was about a month I sat her down and told her everything worse conversation I had but I was positive and still am whatever will be will he but in the meantime I am maintaining my positivity trusting the doctors & giving this cancer a run for its money.

Stay positive talk about it to friends family take any support offered and occasionally cry but not to much

 Hi Cjay, Thank you responding, it was so up lifting to hear from you and Jan,  you are both realy positive and strong, since being told i have noticed  i have the best nights sleep ever but when awake its like i am waiting for something to happen but my mind is thinking of nothing , then i get a quick punch of pure fear.

I told my best friend yesterday and yes things did seem different after, once i have the full details i will tell my mum and family as questions now will fall on vacant space in my head

I am so thankful of finding this forum for the advise and strength and to know i am not alone, and we will beat it together

I myself was diagnosed with breast cancer in feb 2017.  Thank GOD my husband was with me when I got the results.  I cried all the way home, thinking why me.  I kept thinking am I going to die.  I thought about my three children.  Will I be there to see them grow. 

It's been 4 months since my diagnose and PRAISE GOD I had a double masectomy and reconstruction in April and my surgical pathology report came back as CANCER FREE.  But my oncologist suggested 12 treatments of chemo to lessen the recurrence of cancer by 15%.  

So I am currently doing chemo treatments.  What has helped me has been my faith and thinking positive.  I have put my health in the LORD hands and know he is in control and will help me get through this if it's his will.

Take care

Cancer is another process that we have to learn to live with, my friend rang yesterday as her 77 yr old Father has just been diagnosed with lung cancer and she was distraught. But we had a chat I obviously couldn't comment on her fathers treatment specifically but talking about it helped her and also me.

when you are able to talk emotions will flow tears will fall but you will find your inner Wonder Woman
