Hi,
I was diagnosed while pregnant, gave birth to a healthy boy. Had a lumpectomy a month later and another one a month after that. I will be starting chemo next week and was wondering if there are others out there with small children. It hasn’t seemed real until now and I am now worried about being tired and being a mom to my boy.
