feeling in "limbo"

Yes we all feel sometimes our life is in limbo after fighting the fight of our lives. I was well into my survival years when I finally found this place of support and plenty of understanding. I just didn't feel comfortable going to a support group so didn't. I can see now that I might of missed many opportunities to come to grips with all that I have been left.
I was 36 a mother of a teen when I was diagnosed with stage 3 bc with plenty of lymphnode involvement. For me the reality of breast cancer has always been there, fresh in mind, even though it had nearly been 20 since I lost my paternal grandmother to her reoccurance.
I think you will find that this posting board is a place for us to dump or pain and fears sometimes but mostly it is used for encouragement. We all have our times of self indulgance as you can see from some of my posts but we still must shake it all of and put one foot in front of the other. One step at a time.
Be good to yourself FIRST,
I welcome you and am so happy you too found this site.

Welcome.

We are all here for each other. I daresay that all of us have had the feelings you are having now. It is so nice to be able to talk with other women who have gone through or are going through the same things. I was 35 when I was first diagnosed with BC Stage1. Then, it recurred in 99 this time Stage IV. God has blessed me and healed me and I am still here to hopefully give encouragement to others. Remember, you can beat this thing. Cancer is not a death notice. I was in a support group for a litle while after my first diagnosis. It does really help to see other women are out there fighting this battle and winning!!

I agree with the other women. Once you are through treatment, you will feel great! It takes time to sort through this disease and time to heal emotionally. Allow yourself time to heal and don't beat yourself up if you need some help. We are here for each other. Most of the time we try to be positive and let the negative go. Once you are through treatment, don't dwell on the "what ifs", concentrate on all the "why nots". Hug that baby girl. Be good to yourself, so you can be good to others.

God Bless,
