Hello from StrongErica

Hello,I am Erica and was diagnosed with breast cancer on March 2nd,2022.Went in for my yearly mammogram and a lump was found in my left breast.Good news it was caught early and the mammogram saved my life.Got the call and I was devastated at first.Dad comforted me and said he will be there for support.Supported my mom when she was diagnosed with it and beat it 5 years ago.My support system has grown as well

Hiyer Erica,

You won’t be alone in any of your reactions or feelings, like the many many thousands who have gone before you (and are now well beyond active treatment) you will find there is much support around - so do just ask and somebody I’m sure will have an answer or something to suggest.It sounds like your parents will be by your side all the way, with an added window on things with your Mum already having faced BC.

I’m sorry that you find yourself here, the place nobody wants to be, but as you said - you were proactive in checking and now you will be able to follow an early stage treatment plan.

Take care
