Hello all ... New here. Four years out from stage 2 invasive ductal, estrogen positive. Had left side mastectomy and gnarly chemo. Consultant now with my own business. Married 21 years, mom of one 15 year old daughter. Having some tough moments and missing that support group so thought I would write in. Cheers to all. Look forward to connecting and thanks for being there!

    Hi!
    Welcome aboard! You'll get lots of support and honesty here. I'm 2 months out from active treatment for TNBC and I really appreciate reading about others experiences on this site. I don't feel so alone with my disease.

    Hugs to you!

    Hi tookiebird I'm also new here. I was diagnosed last Feb with Breast Cancer, had a double masectomy, went through chemo and radiation. Now I'm cancer free. You can go to your support group anytime. Women have been free of cancer for five years or more they came back after a while. Go back You need it. Cheeras to you to.

    Hi tookiebird,

    I am recently diagnosed with Stage 2 invasive ductal cancer.Had a lumpectomy 5-4-2012 to remove 4 lumps. The largest was 3 cm. I will have chemo port surgery 5-30-2012. I start chemo June 8, 2012. Do you have any suggestions? I hope you continue to do well and thanks for returning. You never know how much you help someone by just reaching out to encourage someone else. I am glad to be a part of an awesome group of women!!!
