Hi Annie.  Michelle is right - your breastcare nurse or the McMillan nurses should be able to introduce you to others in a similar situation or certainly tell you about support groups in your area.

Sometimes normality is good - and helping your family with everyday things is a good escape from the cancer life. Maybe suggest having mum/daughter time now and again, so this disease doesn't dominate you and your families lives.

Have you a friend who could keep you company sometimes or other family who will support you? I have made some lovely friends here on the forum and really hope you will too.  I have herceptin receptive breast cancer- sadly at stage 4 - so have been through most related treatments if you ever have any questions.  Hopefully u will also meet others at your chemo appointments.

Sometimes you will feel alone with this disease, even when you are surrounded by others. It's at times like these that the forum is invaluable.  Please keep in touch and all the best to you x
