Hi Brenda,

I can relate.. well sort of.. I was 36 when diagnosed with breast cancer. Had a mastectomy 4 days later and went through about 6 months of hell. I came through it! About 7 yrs ago I had to have a full hysterectomy, had suspect ovaries,, and then about 4 years ago had several nodules and half my thyroid removed. Everytime a lump is found the doctors panic (more than me) then its tests, scans, scrapes and removal! I try not to think about it, but I often wonder .. when .. the other breast

I have coped with the support and love of my wonderful hubby and sweet son and a few close friends, and my furbabies, not always yorkies but def. yorkies over the past three years!!

I understand how you feel, although I am not in pain nor have any real health problems at the moment, but my heart goes out to you, it is so scary when something goes wrong, one thinks the worst... we women are a strong bunch,
try to be positive and if C returns ... fight the ba%t#$d!!

Sorry this is long but I know it helps to know you're not alone and there are others with similar problems - isn't the waiting terrifying?

I will be praying really hard for you - am going to do my "pinkribbon dance" and will think of you daily. All these wonderful women on Yt will help you get through this - they always seem to work miracles

Smell the roses, look up at the stars , watch the falling leaves and kiss your yorkie

Please just come and talk to us when you're feeling down, feel free to cry and get angry - you're entitled!
With love and understanding,
Sheilagh.
