Breast cancer Triple Negative

Hi ladies 

I was diagnosed with triple negative BC in July 2018 worst day of my life as you all could imagine. Started chemo in August 6 sessions finished that in Dec, had lumpectomy in January 2019, 7 weeks on my scares have healed nicely but numb under the arm pit where they done the lymph nodes ( But was clear) started Radiotherapy recently on my 4th session have 13 to go . Out of all this treatment the worst was losing my hair But grateful to still be alive and watching my grandson grow up he was my motivation. Back to work now and booked Lanzarote 3 days after treatment finishes which I have to wear factor 50 and not allowed in the pool but can paddle All I can say is Good luck and don’t be scared nothing hurt me only my dignity of looking like kojac xxxxx

  • Hi there ...

    So pleased no lymph node effected. . That's a real bonus ... so you've come so so far .. bet you never realised just how brave you are .. think this uncaring, nasty cancer doesn't like us when we take it on .. I'm the same.. life and just every time l see my granddaughter, in pic ... l look up and say thank you ... 

    Hope the rest of your treatment goes well and you have an amazing CHILLED holiday .. you so deserve it ..  and don't worry bout looking like Kojac ,he had many admirers ... just remember to suck the Lolly pop .. and look sexy ..lol .. I had a total right masectomy ... so my nickname is "one hung low "
