Hi Michelle,

no I didn't cold cap, but I do know of ladies who did and got good results....have you been given any idea of when your treatment plan will start? 

Its worth going to the dentist before it all starts, get any work done now. Ask about NHS wigs ( I have a lovely one) and ask about your NHS free prescriptions, I was given a form to fill out and dropped it into my doctors...

also so worth asking your hospital ( where you're having chemo) about free or subsidised parking.....mine is free....

always here if you need to chat xxx

Thank you x

Thanks Marlyn thats goid advice..

My husband is in the Navy but luckily has just been given 2 weeks compassionate leave. I was in tears taking the kids to school this morn.

How on earth will i go shopping without crying into the onions lol.. so thank god he is coming home.

Ive been in touch with a genetic councellor to get things pushed on as its likely ive got the BRCA1 gene, which means i may need a double Mastectomy.. but i need answers so i can make a decisiom etc..

Please let us know how you get on today Sudi.

I'm an ex service wife and couldn't imagine doing all this with hubby away, I totally empathise with you. Do you live on a base? What's the support network like? Do you have a families officer? 

Yes, you need to be practical now, make your tick list....no question is a silly one...xxx

No we dont live on a base.. but we are lucky enough to live near lots of family and good friends.. but theres nothing like having hubby around because i really dont want to start relying on people when im having a *** day and just dont want to talk.. we have a bathroom fitter in at the mo too and i cant even face him today without getting teary.. 

They will be sending a families officer, i just feel like thank god we've got that support.xx

I hope your family's officer is a good one, my hubby was family's officer when we were based in London. I also hope you have a good breast cancer nurse ( having said that I haven't heard from mine once) good friends are key, don't be afraid to call on them. There will defo be days when you won't be bothered with anyone....and that's totally normal, you just got to do whatever it takes to get you through this. It's worth asking your families officer if your hubby can extend his compassionate leave, just during the chemotherapy at least....your emotions will be all over the place...I know mine is! Xx

Hi michelle

i didn’t get a definite result. I’ve had to have another biopsy.... another weeks wait. This is horrid. But I’m trying to think that they didn’t find anything in the first one, so that can only be s good thing. I’m not sure what to think if I’m honest. 

Take care
