Hi all…one day after my birthday I’ve been diagnosed with “that”…breast cancer…
Only found lump in my left breast by accident,I’ve realised that I’ve lost some weight and found it…
Reality slapped me right across my face, panicked to start off,than rung my GP, managed to get an appointment on the same day, been referred to breast clinic.
Mammography,scan and immediate biopsy of breast and lymph nodes.
Another biopsy of my arm pit 6 days later.
And the agonising waiting game…
That am still part off, currently waiting for results on Her2…
In meantime I’ve sorted my will,pension beneficiaries, accounts etc…
I am an active person, how the heck I’ll recover staying home and doing NOTHING??
Complications?? Not allowed.
Death? Not allowed.
Infections? Not allowed.
I want to be done and dusted asap as in 2022 I have two 10k races and Great North run for crying out loud!!! And planned to sing for more…
Why the heck that “thing” decided to grab my little titty???
Am pass crying stage, cried two days after first biopsy when my lovely leading nurse said it out loud"you’ve got cancer".
Now am just angry and trying to keep up with my daily routines as long as I can to stay fit, doubling on vitamins and good food to keep my body strong…but…what else can I do?
I don’t sleep right well,as you can imagine brain doesn’t want to switch off and relax…
Thousands of thoughts are running with a speed of light right before am about to nod off…what to do?
Anywho…
I’ve started to share what’s happening to me on social medias,to raise awareness,to remind ladies to check boobies. Few ladies booked their mammography cos of me. Am glad, I hope that my story will help to anybody that will find themselves in similar situation.
I don’t cry anymore.
I fight!!!
