Hey BettyB

I am currently in exactly the same situation as you. I attended the clinic on Wed (21st) and Dr has pretty much said the lump she found is cancerous. I'm due back on 5th May for the biopsy results. I feel in a daze to be honest. When I talk about it I can't actually comprehend that I'm talking about myself! I'm 48 and this wasn't part of my life plan :-( 

How are you doing? Thinking of you. Sarah xx 

Hi Sarah,

I am so sorry to see that you have joined our forum for the same reason. The way you are feeling is perfectly normal. It is so difficult to accept that this is happening to you and not someone else. This is something that none of us plan for in our lives, but we've just got to work with the cards that we're dealt and it is all perfectly 'doable'. 

I hope that your results on 5th May show, that if you do have cancer, it is still in the early stages. Irrespective of the outcome, you will feel better once you know exactly what you are dealing with and  start to work towards getting rid of it.

Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on with your results. Remember that we are always here for you.

Kind regards,

Jolamine xx

Hi Jolamine

Thank you for your lovejy response. I have read so many of your kind words and great advice on here. You are always so positive which is always so good to read. 
 

Love Sarah xx 

Hi sarah,

Thank you for your kind comments. I have found that positivity is a great help in coping with cancer. Like most people, i still have down days, but don't let them rule my life. Life is too short to let this happen and I intend to live it to the best of my abilities.

We nearly all persuade ourselves that things are worse than we think at this stage. Keeping my fingers crossed that this won't be the case when you get your results.

Kind regards,

Jolamine xx
