The good and the bad

Hi peeps

I have recently been diagnosed with breast cancer. Taking the excellent advice on this website I pretty much started by taking it one day at a time. This does indeed help. 

I thought to share the good and the bad and would love to hear anyone else's should they wish to share.

Today I had both a good and a bad moment. I received 2 letters in the post.

The first was from the hosp confirming my op date (my bad moment) cos my stomach dropped and I had that now familiar feeling of anxiousness take hold for a moment but shook it off cos I know it is needed. 

The good - my 2nd letter - as if... a tax rebate - boom  . Not half put a much needed smile on my face . Reckon a my treat family meal is in order.

Eeee it's the little things ain't it. 

Take care peeps

  • Morning peeps 

    bad none:-

    good :- 2 yrs ago today I was told “ it’s cancer”..... 2 yrs later - I’m still here :)  

    when we are first told it’s like someone removed all the bones from our bodies and connected a hosepipe to our eyes and turned the tap on. Then just to crank it up a bit drop us in a black box with no light so we cannot see anyway we can get out of it. 

    Today I am greatful to the “everyone”.

    The multitude who picked me up and guided me out of the black box to show me exactly how we were going to deal with it.

    The ones who said turn the hose pipe off whenever you are ready... it’s ok to cry and you can stop when you stop.

    The advice and support on this forum - who began to put the bones back in my body- a bone at a time till I could stand up again and with my backbone back in place... I could look cancer in the eye and stare it down.

    I often put on here “live life to the full and hold loved ones close not because you have cancer but because you should have always been doing this”.

    So... have as good a day as you can peeps. 

    And..... thank you...you were all right.... I could do this X ️X
