Hi Margaret
Here I am again, can’t sleep, have work at 7.30 am tomorrow morning, full day tomorrow until 6pm. Just can’t sleep lots of stuff going on in my head, had not too bad a day yesterday but today not so good. Especially tonight, very angry and emotional. You sound like a wonderful person Margaret, and I hope you also find the inner strength to carry on with your treatment, you sound like you have a wonderful family behind you, keep that thought…
My family are great but already (I am only three days into my diagnosis) I am fed up with the words, be strong, you can beat it etc. etc. etc. What the hell do they no, it’s easy to say that stuff when you are not going through it. I know I will get through this, but at the moment I don’t want it, I want the op’s to be over tomorrow, I don’t want to wait another 3.1/2 weeks before I know the outcome of the lymph node test, I want to know now. Also I’m wondering whether it is best to have both breast mastectomy to get rid of the chance of it coming back again, I don’t think I could bear that. Sorry feeling sorry for myself tonight, not so good, usually I am a very strong, bouncy person who everyone thinks is the life and soul of a party, you know what I mean. Well tonight I’m not, just fed up and as I say, feeling sorry for myself. Ho hum.
I feel worn out and I’ve only just started this journey, perhaps I should go to the GP and get some calming down, go to sleep tablets, but then I have work, and I don’t know what to do about that. Anyway, questions, questions.
Thanks Margaret for listening to me dribble on, not a good night, thanks for your valuable input and general kindness, you are all on this site just amazing people. I apologise for being like this tonight, just not good.
Take care and thanks again.
Speak soon,
Ladela xx
