i found out 2 weeks ago chemo started yesterday i now admit im scared im 34 n live on my own
Morning coral1989,
They don’t hang about do they. No wonder we all get scared.
You are in the right place for support from others on line. I believe there is a section for younger people too. I would have been there 22 years ago when I had bc at age 29. Surgery, radio and chemo.
You say you live alone but do you have a good close friend or network of friends. If so make use of them. Good friends will want to help.
And I’m sure a bcc moderator will be along with a link to other useful sections for younger people.
Keep in touch.

Hi coral1980
Welcome to the BCC Forum where I’m sure you will find a lot of support from fellow members.
As Judith said there is a section on the forum for Younger people. I’ve attached a link:
forum.breastcancercare.org.uk/t5/Younger-women-and-families/bd-p/4449
You might also find it helpful to join the thread started by members beginning their chemo in the same month as each other. I’ll attach a link to the March 2015 group
forum.breastcancercare.org.uk/t5/Chemotherapy-monthly-threads/starting-chemo-March-2015/td-p/925634
As well as the support to be found on the forum you could also phone our Helpline. The opening times are 9-5 on weekdays and 10-2 on Saturdays. The number is 0808 800 6000
Very best wishes
Janet
