Hello, I'm 37 and have stage 1, grade 3 triple negative breast cancer. I'm having chemo first, then surgery and finally radio. I've just had round 2 of chemo (EC) and was so sick - hopefully on the turn now. I can't get out of my negative spiral whereby I'm sure I'm strong enough to beat this cancer, but I'm terrified about it returning and becoming a death sentence. I'm desperate to see my children (8 and 5) grow up, get back to my job which I love (teaching) and grow old with my husband. Sadly, the statistics keep jumping out at me and I'm so worried that within 2 years, I'll be back with the oncologist with devastating news. If only we could predict the future! Is it a death sentence if it returns? Rio Ferdinand's wife and Lisa Lynch (the C word) both were triple negative. It's so scary! Xx
