Hi all......on the 25th of July i was diagnosed with 2nd stage breast cancer after finding a lump - went to see the specialist and had Mamograme/Ultra sound and then biopsy - my heart sank and i just knew it was going to be bad news. The two weeks waiting for results were awful - my worst worry in the world was confirmed and also that i needed another biopsy from the lymph node - inconcluisve :( so another test and then confirmation that it was in the lymph node.  I am now wating to meet my Oncologist to start Chemo as this is the way the team is going to deal with 'Lumpy' first...MRI on Thursday and the then we will be kicking this wee ***** in to touch.  At first i felt as if my whole world had fallen apart...my husband and our daughter...how will they cope? But now through all the support from a loving family and friends around me i am in a much better place and positive thinking - we WILL beat this!!  I know how lucky i ma to have all the support i have - some people do not have that....for this i will be for ever grateful.  I am 50 on Wednesday....so this will be a birthday to remeber!......good luck and hello to everyone else going through the same thing xx
