FML, I'm strong, but not this strong

Ladies, I needed to vent. I seriously can't believe everything that I am having to cope with. I am going to give you the short and dirty.....



My fiancee proposed to me last May and found a lump in my right breast. I was diagnosed July 20. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy through December.



It is 2 weeks to the day after my bilateral mast, LD flap and TEs. I'm still in pain and have 3 drains in.



My fiancee got word today that he is going to be mobilized (he's in the navy reserves) FOR A YEAR starting April.



He has been so amazing through all of this and I can't believe this is happening. God is showing me how strong I am, but I am so tired...can't life be a little bit easier?

I'm so sorry you're having such a hard time.  My DH is in the Army so I understand, he was deployed when I was dx.  He came home very soon afterward and has been my rock during this whole thing.  Life sure can test you sometimes and when it rains it pours it seems.  It takes a special person to handle military life, normal life is stressfull enough and military is even more stressful.  I had both my children while my DH was deployed, I found out I was prego and he'd go a month later.  I tease him and tell him he got over and dealt with none of the prego hormones   God doesn't give us more than we can handle so, he knows you can do this.  When he returns you'll be stronger and active tx will be over (hopefully).  Best wishes to you both, hope the time goes by fast and he returns safely.
