Wife diagnosis

Hi my 36 year old wife was diagnosed with breast cancer last Thu and to say we're shocked is an understatement. We have two little ones and she's determined this isn't going to take her away from them. We find out more (grading etc) next week. Initially they've said it doesn't look like it's in lymph nodes so seeing this as a positive?? Up and down like I don't know what.. please tell me she's going to be ok . Trying to stay as positive as we can atm x 

  • Hi,

    I'm 38 married with two young sons, your story sounds like mine. My husband and I were on the floor we didnt expect it for a second. I was diagnosed 6 weeks ago. 

    We are a bit further down the line than you,,I'm happy to share notes but don't want too bombard you will info that isn't relevant to you. I just want to say that I have been told is very treatable they will have a plan for you at your next appointment. They didn't think mine was in my Nodes either when they did ultrasound and when they did the lumpectomy they took a biopsy and it wasn't so I think you will be fine, even if it is they will remove them. 
     

    Once you get all the info you will feel better. It's very treatable and sounds like you caught it early.  
    I hope the results are positive for you,. 
     

    Tell your wife she is not alone, there are many like us feeling the same.

    hope I've helped Sarah 
     

     

  • Thank you so much. They said it's currently 2.5cm with a few smaller ones round it. Just can't stop thinking about it and constantly feel sick! 
     

    your reply has already given me some comfort and I wish you and your family all the very very best!!!!

  • Hi James, Glad I made you feel a bit more at Ease. What I have learnt is that their is so many didn’t treatment options they will always have a plan. Best wishes and I hope it’s the most positive outcome. If she is anything like me she is hiding how she really feels to carry on as Normal as possible. Much Love To you both Sarah
  • Hi again

    Not sure when your Appointment is but I send positive thoughts to you both. You will both be worried wrecks I'm sure as we are before each appointment but I think at least now you know and something can be done. Stay positive
