Hi there ..

Well you get it off your chest .. (no pun intended) for years I'd hold everything in , then get in the bath, put some soft music on .. and lay back with loads of lovely bubbles ... then cry my heart out ... it was my space to let it all out ...

You've been through a huge trauma .. one that goes on too .. but if you don't let it out, you'll brake .. so get your self a safe space .. for you .. sinse my diagnosis... if I'm having a bad day .. I say it's o.k ... l have a bad day .. is a let the tears out .. cuss at cancer .. and once it's all out, I'm ready to just back on .. 

You know the real meaning of brave .. it's being scared witless but still doing what you have to any way..  that's brave ... so you let your self have a down time .. then get back in the ring for round two .. 

So sending you a vertual hug... Chrissie xx

Hello, it's healthy to have a wobble occasionally. I do too. I was diagnosed with breast cancer at the beginning of May, had a lumpectomy and now I am having radiotherapy. A glass of wine is a must! Wishing you all the best.

I was just short of 69 years old when diagnosed, both of my daughters were with me when I went into not surgery and as they were older, handled it with love and great humor.  Age, lots of hardship, I was not terribly traumatized.  Really needed to stay on earth for certain people, got a virus during chemo and understood what leaving might feel like.  Fought to stay.  I understand that being older made it easier for me to be diagnosed, had stage 2, etc breast mastectomy, many lymph nodes removed.  Hair grew to my waist, this is picture my daughter took this year after I cut my hair.  I joined a mastermind group 10 months ago and am careful of my thoughts and what I speak. Feel great, cancer free and really sending you my best thoughts!!!!

Hey

Hope you are feeling a bit less wobbly. I had a major wobbly meltdown yesterday, the trigger was a trip to a local hairdresser to see if she could wash and blow dry my hair system as I've had my op and can't do it myself and she was asking me questions which I hadn't prepared myself for....got home and had a bit of a meltdown. 
It happens, I can understand your worry about scans, I was the same, I think it's natural to worry about the unknown and things you can't influence or control, I found that if I acknowledge that I can't influence or control them, and put them into a virtual box under the bed until I have to deal with them it seems to work. 
As Chriss says don't forget what you've been through, it's ok to have off days (should have taken my own advice yesterday btw).

big hugs
