A am starting this blog because I recently found out I have breast cancer and wanted to be able to let family and friends know of my feelings and progress as I experience this new adventure.
This is very awkward because I really don't like to talk about myself very much, especially about my health problems. My spirits are high and I would appreciate it if everyone around me would be positive also and have a happy smile. I like funny jokes if I can understand them. I have a sense of humor so expect that to come out often. Please no advice. I have four wonderful Doctors, yes four. Before this is all over we may be on a first name basis, thats if I can pronounce them. Thank you in advance for your support.
Hi Robin. I got diagnosed with gr 1- (minimally invasive but no lymph node involvement) breast CA about a month after I retired last July. How long ago did you get told? What's your next steps? (Besides thinking about it a lot)
ReplyDeleteHi Robin....I have been fooling with this for what seems like hours.....but, you know I exagerate!!! Get well real soon as I Love You and need you in my life. Anything you need or want let me know and I am here for you.
ReplyDeleteLove, Diane
I mean for you to take for granted that it's OK to vent and ask questions of me (& your Dr.'s). I'm an RN & the unasked for personal experience.... I did surgery & radiation but not chemo. I've tried 2 estrogen blockers and will soon try a 3rd. Maybe some of that is more that you are ready to ask about & and there are LOTS of support things for this dx besides loving family & friends. I'd like you to know I'm available for some support & hugs too.
ReplyDeleteRobin - I am so glad you are sharing this part of your life with us. I need to learn all I can so keep the info coming. Lots of prayers and love.
