Hey,
I don't know why I am posting this, probably just trying to seek reassurance from somewhere.
My mum was diagnosed with breast cancer late in 2020, luckily it was caught relatively early, she underwent a double mastectomy and was given the all clear in March 2021 for which I am eternally grateful.
since then, I have been blindsided by worry about her, the cancer returning or even being diagnosed with a different strain (I have heard ovarian cancer is common for those who have suffered from breast cancer).
I suppose I was just wondering whether these feelings of panic are normal. I feel very guilty for feeling like these given I know we were 'lucky', but I also don't want my relationship with my mum to suffer because I am constantly worrying about her...
I would love to hear from anyone who has been through similar.
