I was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer in july 22 and had a mastectomy, chemo snd radiotherapy . Just when i thoght things were getting better, the fatigue is wearing off and they finally get my medication sorted im hit with the bombshell that i have secondary cancer in my liver and the nodes in my neck are looking suspect. Im absolutely reeling and my head is all over the place. I knw its only been a few days since i found out but how do you get to a place where you can live with this x
