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

  • Hi all, I’ve been quite rubbish...sorry about that! Had a mini meltdown after active treatment finished but getting back to the real me now. I’m choosing to step away a bit from cancerland a but as I don’t really want to give it more of my time than it deserves. But this thread is gold and I’ve missed you all. The good and the bad must continue so I promise to check in more often! xxx
