Enjoy 4th of July weekend. )

You hit it right on the head!  STFU!!  Everyone keeps saying "Be thankful cause it was caught early"!  Who said I wasn't thankful for that part of it but I'm not thankful it was caught at all or I should say had to be caught!  The RO told me last week as we were scheduling for my Savi Radiation, "It's really not cancer at all, it's just treated like cancer.".  WTF!!!  Seriously!! You are giving me radiation when it's not cancer??  Yes, it is cancer!  He said that when it was the first dx DCIS stage 0 but now it's been increased a bit because it broke out and now is stage 1.  It went from DCIS stage 0 to IDC DCIS Stage 1, Nottingham 7, ER+ 70%, PR+85% and the worst part HER2 + 3.   So where the RO (smart guy) says it's not cancer, it has become invasive and aggressive???  Was setting up for my 5 day Savi radiation and now I am waiting for another surgery to remove any residual margins, check my lymph nodes with the blue dye by doing a sentinel node biopsy the same day as the lumpectomy.  My surgeon said it will be an all day adventure. Had my lumpectomy on 7/12 and am having the next surgery on 8/2/2016.  Then will find out if I can do the targeted radiation or 6 week full breast radiation or chemo with radiation.  Just wish it wasn't a waiting game!!  So when someone says be thankful or it's not bad, you only have ........ I would love to scream  STFU!  I do realize that they mean well but sometimes people just do not realize the more you say, the deeper the hole is dug!

Thanks Teka!  My daughter and my 2 grandchildren (2 & 7) came to visit for a couple of days to help get my mind off of my dx.  I am still anxious for the lymph node biopsy.  But I must say the kids keep you so busy and so happy that it is hard to think about 'this' all of the time.  Except when my baby granddaughter says "owie? Owie there?  See?"  cause she likes to look at it.  She & my daughter came to my biopsy dx and so we told her 'Gaggy' had an Owie and to be careful.  She liked looking at the bandaid and I think she has been helpful to my spirits with her intent examination (my personal 2 yr old Dr).  LOL        My daughter is so anxious about it and is doing research and is being adamant about no sugars or alcohol, lots of exercise etc.   My hubby and I like to have a martini 2 or 3 times a week and I am a nut for sugar so ALL of this is difficult........WTF!!!  So when I hear No Sugar is when I want to say Ah, just STFU!!  But I do know that she loves me unconditionally and is only trying to find the best thing for her Mom!!   But I love the analogy of one step, one breath, one moment at a time............it all takes time!    Have a fantastic week!!

Hi Gabby.. Sounds like you have a very caring family.. Just like our Ducky's..😃

Holy Cow!

Thank you and I do!!  I am so fortunate to have the support from my family and I am so thankful!!!  My daughter has been so helpful with finding information and the best habits to start building/following.  So I WILL cut back on my sugar/sweet tea and instead of having a martini once or twice a week, I will be having a glass of red wine.  I have been told by many and read several articles about red wine being good for you. So a glass of red wine will be helpful in many ways!  I drink water all of the time so I am hydrated.   Ducky, it sounds like you have a very loving and caring family, also!!    I have no idea what I'd be going through at this time in my life without my loving and supportive family!

Have a GREAT weekend!!

Thanks for the warm welcome to the group!

ShaneOak ..sending Hugs ..I think we can all relate to how your feeling ..

ShaneOak, I think your original thread is the bomb. It's open, honest, how most of us feel and tells it like it is.

I am sending you a STFU for the next person that irks you (me included) and I will be sure to tell someone to STFU today in your honor.

Here's hooping you day improves. Any woman raising 3 kids and crying in a closet to keep them protected is my kind of woman. But, I give you an internet shoulder to put that precious head on and I promise, I won't say a word, just rub your shoulder. I don't cry either - it's been frozen for some time now.

Warm wishes,

Marie

I just stumbled upon this thread and it looks like I'll fit right in! When I first found a lump in December, I knew it was going to be breast cancer. When I was diagnosed, the anger set in pretty quick. I told my teenage sons I was going to chop the f***ers off and be done...haha. One down, one to go!

Lucy55 I wanted the BMX, but my surgeon wouldn't do both, just the cancerous one. I think he does it in the best interest of the patient. Some probably regret it if they make that decision when emotions are running high. I say farewell to my uniboober status on 11/3.
