Just wanted to introduce myself and ask for your opinions

Hello there,
That is great that you are enjoying the autumn leaves and being with your grandson. I cant wait for grand children but as my daughter is only 20 I may have to wait a while longer yet !!
I told everyone about my diagnosis , but that is just me and what everyone would have expected from me. I tried to be very positive and upbeat and my work colleagues, best friends, church friends, and all my family took the news really well. I could not have kept my news from them as I am a very open and honest person so I am glad you have told your duaghter and I am sure she will give you the love and support you need.
Well Done on not taking the cancellation if you did not feel ready. I had my op delayed as I had immediate reconstruction and my surgeon had a full diary but I was happy to go back to work for a couple of weeks and act normal even telling all my regular customers who again were brilliant and bought me flowers and chocolates.
Well I will say Good Night and send you lots of positive vibes and big hugs . Love Tracy xxx

Thanks Tracy

Are you still waiting for you op or have you had it now?

Grandchildren are amazing! I have 3. One is 10 one 4 and one just about to turn One. They are my world

I have started to tell people now and I feel much better. I wrote a list of all the people that I wanted to tell and how I would tell them. My friends have been great and really strong for me.

Yes. I’m glad I didnt take the cancellation now and most people I have spoken to about it have agreed.

Best wishes

I am praying for a cancellation.
My surgery will not be until mid-December otherwise, and that is on the “urgent list”

However, my breast surgeon wants to consult with my hematologist about my platelet levels, which are now over 1million.
I really dont know what’s going on with this stupid body of mine!! :frowning:

Hi ladies

Hi everyone, I’ve been reading all your posts and I too found it difficult to tell anyone. I was diagnosed (3 weeks ago) on the tuesday and had op following monday therefore did not have time for the news to sink in or accept it. I had to tell work as I returned to work in a mess after receiving the results. I could not bring myself to tell my partner until the following evening and I felt awkward telling my son, which I did the day before surgery. I cannot really explain why I couldn’t tell people, was I embarrassed, was it due to being a delicate subject, or was it because I could not accept it so how can I explain it to other people. Why do we feel like this ? I down played it aswell like the other lady on this forum, saying it is small, they’ve caught it early and easily treatable. I still haven’t been able to tell other people apart from one close friend but I think once I’ve received results of my WLE & SNB next week and know what I’m working with then I will be able to tell others. Reading your posts has been reassuring I’m not alone and I wish all of you a good recovery, love & hugs
