Hi everyone I have just found out today that I have breast cancer and I thought it would nice to come in here and meet people going through this as well . I am still getting my head around it and I don't think it has sunk in completely . The worst bit I found was telling my kids that is what upset me the most . I am sitting here now and I can't sleep my head is going hundred miles an hour . It's so much to take in but I am getting there . I will be having an operation in the next couple of weeks to remove the lump and gland under my arm and the radiopraphy after . The one question I would like to ask about the radiopraphy is my daughter is pregnant and I was wondering if it is safe for me to go near her while I am having the treatment and if not how long after from when the treatment has finish do I have to stay away from her . Because by the time the treatment will finish it will nearly be Xmas and I just hoping I will be able to see my daughter and my other grandson . I know this might be a silly question but it's all I can think about at the moment . Well I'm looking forward to talking with you all Toni xx
