Welcome. This is a wonderful place to find information, support and to just share your thoughts and feelings. I am relatively new and haven't posted much but follow the posts daily and find everyone to be so supprtive and well informed about breast cancer. It is a real help to me. I hope you find it so also.

Welcome. We all have a few things in common. We were all new once, AND we all have experience with cancer. Don't be shy about sharing. We are all interested in hearing about you.

Oh my goodness, thank you all for your wonderful replies.

I have just finished my 5th cycle of 6, so 2 more treatments to go. Then it's off to radiation for 4 weeks. Up until now, I have maintained my positive attitude & good spirits, but of late I have become quite down with just being fed up & have had enough. It's not like me to think negatively, so of course it's another thing I feel like I'm losing control over. But ... don't mistake it, I'm determined to get through this next gruelling last month that reminds me of being 8 months pregnant & never seeing the end.

Thanks for (listening?)

Bless your heart. We all want to be positive all the time,but, life just has a way of making that a real challenge. Just know when you feel like screaming, letting go, giving up, we have all felt like that and even when treatment is through, we still have those days. Welcome and thank you for coming and sharing. We all understand and we are all here for you..

I remember reading messages on the board for a long while before necessity forced me to find the courage to post a question. Your brave message reminded me how much help and support I have received here ever since. I needed to post that first question because my breast forms kept leaping out of my neckline even though the bras were pocketed for breast forms!
Hugs,
