Hi McGruff,
I know what you are going through. I too didn't sleep for a long time. Oh, for the days when You weren't scarred out of your mind. But it does get better. I am on this a lot, can't sleep, so anytime you need to talk let me know. I love this site too but can't quite figure it out. Let's try e-mail? I'll read your web page tonight after work so I'm more in-tune to what's going on. Hang in there

I just a lumpectomy, and I'm waiting to see the oncologist - my guess is chemo and radiation and who knows what else. But I surely know the feelings and the confusion and as much as everyone around me is so proud of me for being so positive and upbeat, I wonder where this strength is really coming from. Someone e-mailed me and said "The Lord will not give you anymore than you can handle. Put your life in his hands.
And so that's just what I've done. I take one day at a time and just pray that I have the courage and the strength to get thru whatever is in store for me. I ask alot of questions especialy from the wonderful women that I've met on this site. This is truly amazing. I can't wait to get home each night to get online. If nothing else picks up your spirits, talking to others for support and compasion has by far lifted my spirits and I'm sure it will lift you too. Keep in touch either on this site or e-mail direct anytime, Just think of it as we are all strolling down the same path together, and if one of us falls, I know the rest will be right there to help out. It doesn't get any better than that!
God Bless, talk to ya soon.

I too was very confused. I have found faith and read my bible. I had a lumpectomy and 2 chemo treatments going for my 3rd tomorrow. I was scared but now have found strength in the Lord. He is helping me to be strong. I still cry alot but that's okay. I wish you well. I will be starting radiation after my 4th chemo treatment. I am looking forward only not backwards. One day at a time.vinnie said:Hi McGruff:

Dear Maggie, Well, I'm among the living again. I had my mastectomy last Wednesday, 9/20. Spend 4 days in hospital. Home now, 2 weeks w/o driving, working, etc. So CSN is open. The preliminary pathologist report is that some of the lymph nodes are positive. I'll know more when I see the surgeon on Thursday. Until then, hope and pray for others health and happiness.maggie said:Hi McGruff! I am new to this forum my name is maggie. I was diagnosed in Aug.1999.

Hi luvpeg, Well on the road again! I've had the mastectomy and the lymph nodes were positive. Have to see the surgeon on 9/28 for follow-up and then maybe the name of the Medical Oncologist to see. Never was a drinker but I guess the chemo cocktails will be next. My good wishes for a good tomorrow. McGruff.luvpeg said:I too was very confused. I have found faith and read my bible.

i am really confused. i have just been diagnosed with infiltrating lobular carcinoma. i searched lobular on this site and came up with your name and several others. i read several messages and you are all talking about mastectomy, while i am scedulaed for a partial mastectomy on tuesday. are you using the term loosely, or did you have a full mastectomy, because here they say a partial plus radiation has as good results as mastectomy. also my surgeon told me she will not do a mastectomy until she has the results of bone, liver, and chest scans, because if there is metastasis she would not do a mastectomy ie, because chemo wil be used. i dont yet know the grade of my tumour or the ER status. anything yu can tell me would be of help. how are yu doing. it certainly is a dvastating experience isnt it.0
