Hi Everyone
My eldest daughter encouraged me to visit the forum as she was amazed at the support everyone gives to each other so here I am and hello to you all. I am day 8 of my first FECT and have struggled quite a lot this week emotionally more than physically. I think it has all come to a head as I had tended to get on with things and try not to think about what was happening to me and now it’s hit me. Great support from my family and friends but luckly that have not experienced what we are all going through.
Scared about what’s ahead. Will I feel worse as the treatment goes on, how will I cope with having no hair???
Diagnosed in September, followed by lumpectomy and removal of 21 lymph nodes but only 1 cancerous. Plan is 6 chemo’s, followed by radiotherapy and medication.
When I first registered on this site on Tuesday I was amazed at how all of you support each other and are all so positive. Every night when I go to bed I visit the forum to see what you’ve all been up to and already feel part of the family.
Thank you to every single on of you who has posted as you have saved my sanity.
