My husband has told my immediate family , my four kids my diagnosis . It's still very new and I don't know what will happen. I have bowel cancer and you could have knocked me down with the preverbial feather when I was told. My family all reacted as I knew each and everyone of them would , I know them so well. My lovely long time friend I also told , because we tell each other everything , she has been my friend since we were both eighteen and we are both mid seventies now.
But , I have a group of friends I do stuff with and I just don't know how to tell them . It's very personal , it's in my view very dramatic, I feel as if I will be whinging and wanting their sympathy. Drama Queen springs to mind. Should I just say nothing or is that being an Ostrich ?
