    Well I first want to thank you all for all of your great wisdom and courage. I have been reading here a lot, (since Dec 1) since I found out that I was triple negative. I am kinda over the crying now just kinda trying to keep my life as normal as possible. It is hard with two girls but I want to for them. I would like to introduce myself. I was just told that I have triple negative IDC. Sometimes I feel like I have a big sign on me. Everyone hugging me. Asking how I feel today. I am just trying to find a way to overcome this and beat it. I am a little scatteredbrain right now trying to absorb it all in plus the fact of being pregnant. Oh well I am ready to fight. No matter what! Thanks again!!

    Sorry you had to find us this way, but you will find a lot of support on this site.  While going through treatment if you have a question or just need to vent - come to these threads there are many many women here who are extremely knowledgeable and full of support. 

    What you are feeling is normal.  People mean well, but at times it can be overwhelming because there are times you just don't want to talk about it or need to be alone - it's okay.  Be sure to make boundries, which is hard and something I have difficulty doing - but needed.  Also, your friends and family while at times may be overwhelming are more than likely offering support and help. With two children you will need help.  For most of us accepting help is difficult, but much needed for you and your family.  Just having meals cooked once a twice a week takes the burden off of you and your family, running errands another big help from people - take it.

    Good luck and know that we're here for you..................

    Dear Mom2B

    You have found a great place for information and support. Also, there is a website called Triple Negative Breast Cancer Foundation that many of us also read and post on. I found it very difficult to sleep in the early, crazy days...so make sure to get plenty of rest. Do you currently work outside of the home? You may find the need to cut back during the treatment phase. We are here to listen to you and to help as much as we are able....you can do this! We all have!

    Thank you all!  You are all so kind. When I went in on Thursday to have an ultrasound of the baby then didn't find one just the ges. sac. WELL... after blood work for my quant level my number doubled! ugh...I have to have the all clear that it is not a vialble pregnancy so I can have all of my testing done on Wed. It has now been two months since I found the lump and I feel like it has been to much time. I want to start fighting this thing. I want to feel like I can do something. I have already changed my diet and bumped up my excersice but I want them to cut it out of me NOW!!! I feel so helpless today.
