Hi there and welcome to our little chat room... sorry you've not had much response... but there are a few of us come and go and pop on occasionally...

I had a grade 3 breast cancer in 2017 and a total masectomy of right boob ... there were another 5 or 6 here when I joined ... most have gone back to their life post breast cancer...  we didn't loose any along the way as I know ... 

It's like a rollercoaster ride ... up and feeling positive one minute and crash down and feel scared the next ...  but if you can hold on to a sense of humour and a want to kick cancers butt.... it's doable ... so hold on in there ... your not alone ... sending you a vertual hug... Chrissie x

Hiya, I have finished with treatment, but I'm happy to chat with you. Radiotherapy I had 19 sessions with weekends off. It's not as bad as we imagine it is. I'm m sure others with pop in and comment

Thank you so so much. Little chats make you think your not alone.   

 Im hope you feeling better and i hope to get my spirts up again and be the person i was before this horrible  illness. 

 I still cant look at myself in the mirror  probably strange thing to say but its only been 3 mths sinxe my surgery xx 

Hi there ...

How I looked at my scar ... as one boob 38DD one flat ... how I did it was to think it's my battle scar , that reminds me of the journey I've been on ... and never to take a single day for granted ..

If that's the price I pay to see my granddaughter Emily smile and see family ... then I can live with that .. so I found once you look at it differently ... flip it over ... it's far easier to accept ... I'm proud of my scar for it gave me the best gift ever .... time .... though I can understand how some feel really bad about it too ..

Any time you want a chat ... I'm here most days .... Chrissie... 

Oh thank you so much. Just scared   of the out come. . Ive got have 5 days wk for 3 wks . 

Im so happy you have finished treatment  and hopefully get all clear. 

 May i ask how you cope with it and look at yourself again as the person i used to be. Friends dont seem to understand what im feeling and hardly talk to me since i was diagnosed with breast cancer September 3rd last year

Hey, I got the all clear last January, but I like to pop in and out and help if I can.

Firstly your friends weren't true friends.

In saying that you can only truly understand it if you've had cancer.

My friends still let me rattle on lol.

Mine never left my side, although it was virtually.

Honestly radio for me was fine.

It's taken a while, you can't be the same person you were. Your mind set changes.

Physically, I look at my scars as a battle I won. 

Corona put paid to living a normal life. For the min. Cancer makes you re-evaluate your life, it did me anyway. People matter not how much money or stuff you have.It makes you appreciate everything.

I fully intend when allowed, to life life to the fullest. 

I'm not going to lie, some days are low days but that's to be expected.

Anytime, feel free to pm me if you feel the need to rant or just chat x

 Oh bless 

 Do you ever  get over it as i still cant  look at myself just now. Is that normal hun. Does radiotherapy hurt  xx 

I think It lives with you forever. I think about it every day, I have been told it lessens.

Its never as bad as you think it is.

Radio doesn't hurt at all, it's longer to get set up actual radio is seconds.

My first time I though you would see a been coming from the machine lol. It doesn't at least I have the nurses a laugh. They talk you through everything. If you have questions just ask them
