I am not sure where to post this so will understand if it's moved to another spot on the forums.
Was recently diagnosed with breast cancer and had my first chemo on Monday, hence my missing the free donkey that day...lol
I have lots of support from family and friends, including those online, my son and daughter are an emense help with rides and help around the house.
I am being very upbeat and positive/forward thinking. Turns out the cancer I have, though agressive, is one that responds very well to treatment and we caught this early.
Just so you know, I read all posts regarding this and do my best to update people who want to know what is happening. Dark Angel at Fantasy Attic has my personal phone number so can inform if the worst should happen, my daughter has instructions to keep her updated on that regard.
Since I use two names online..CalieVee and Faeryl Womyn, you may have seen a similar post elsewhere. I am not a deeply religious person, I am a little bit of everything, basically Eclectic, so will not be offended by prayers. I am non judgemental that way.

So sorry to hear your news - best wishes for a great recovery
I am very sorry this has happen to you. Its a very scary experience, I have been there. I had both my breast removed & 5 months of chemo , 18 rounds of radiation and then reconstructive surgery of both breast afterwards for stage 3 ductal carcinoma of the left breast which was only picked up when they did a ultra sound, and stage 2 lobular carcinoma of right breast which was found during routine screening,. its been almost 2 years now since my last treatment, I just got a clean check up in January, I go in every 6 months now , so far so good. They also check my liver & kidneys yearly to make sure it does not metabolize in my organs.I was told that is routine as well. Cancer is a scary road. but i had lots of support from friends and family. & the advocate @ women's breast center and a user here at daz " Novica" helped me by giving me someone to talk with about it other than a family member who s worried . It was a very diffacult time for me I had so many questions and I wanted results sooner than it could be.
Try to keep the faith and do things to help keep your spirits and immune system up, seek out a councilor at your local chapter of the American Cancer Society https://www.cancer.org/ they are a really great support asset to help you. its very important to stay healthy during treatment and be strong and know in your heart you'll pull through it. I am proof breast cancer can be beat I wish you speedy recovery.
Sending good thoughts your way.
I'm praying for your full recovery. Take care of yourself and try and relax and have fun if you can. I'm glad you're being positive as I think that makes a big difference in healing.
I read about a woman who was healed of her cancer (despite the doctors saying that there wasn't much chance of it) and how she injected as much fun and laughter into each day as she could as she was fighting cancer and she believed it to be one of the main factors in her healing. I think that there is really something to that. Try and watch funny shows, stay positive, bring as much laughter into each day as you can, and do the things that you enjoy doing. I pray that healing comes your way and restores health to your body.
I've seen friends and family go through this and survive, including a neighbour who lost a breast to it when I was a kid in the 1970s. She was well into her eighties when she died of natural causes around four decades later. The reason I mention her now is because when my sister-in-law was diagnosed with breast cancer a few years ago, I told her about my old neighbour and she said that she needed to hear it because stories like that are few and far between compared to those that don't have a happy ending. When I think how many advances we must have made on the treatment front since the 1970s, I think that particular story would probably be more encouraging than most for anyone battling this awful disease today. My sister-in-law went on to beat breast cancer too, and I am sending loads of good vibes and positive thoughts your way in the hope that we'll soon be hearing about how you've come out the other side as well. Take care :)
Sending good vibes and best wishes your way. You always have people here if you need anyone to talk to.
Thoughts, prayers and good vibes. Hugs.
Prayers up for you...you'll pull through! Cancer is much different than it used to be.
I'm just wrapping up helping my Dad go through Stage IV liver cancer with multiple organs involved. It was so bad they had him in the ICU for almost 2 weeks and in the hospital for a month. That was because no one really noticed he was deteriorating and was dehydrated and weak and it had knocked his liver completely out of whack. Once they got him out of the hospital (which it never should have gone that far!) we brought him home with us to TX and by the 2nd round of Chemo, the 5 masses he had were GONE.
He had to finish out the treatment of 6 rounds, but a few weeks ago they declared him totally clear and they take out his little port thing next week. His chemo didn't cause any throwing up, etc etc that you always think of. He lost a bit of hair, lost some weight and felt kinda tired a lot and things tasted a bit funny to him, but it was nothing like as bad as we expected. He just wears his usual ballcap...lol. They fed him steroids to help with that and most of the time he was up writing, etc. He's cured now and starting to regain weight and muscle.
I also have a friend who went through the breast cancer thing and she's fully recovered and healthy and happy now. It was a bit painful because she had the surgery and replacement but she's right as rain now, goes out to the desert riding ATVs and back to living a full life. It sucked for a few months and then it was behind her.
Sending good thoughts your way...
ETA: I know what you mean Divamakeup. We had one JERK doctor come in who was "consulting for surgery" if needed. He claimed it wasn't possible, and that we shouldn't listen to the doctors saying they would treat it with chemo because they give false hope because that's how they make their money. I thought I just got told I was gonna lose my dad within 3-6 months tops.
Luckily, the ACTUAL cancer doc came in literally right after him and chewed him out and said there's no surgery because that's not how you treat THIS kind of cancer DUH, and sorta tossed him out. Never saw him again but I hope she reported him. It's been 8 months and Dad's doing GREAT considering what he went through.
Best wishes for a speedy and complete recovery.
May each day bring you more happiness and one step closer to putting this behind you.
David
Keep postive and stay strong ... sending positive strength and happy thoughts to you. Wish you all the best and a speedy recovery .. you can beat this !
A positive attitude will make all the difference in the world. There are countless true stories about survivors, who survived because they refused to quit. My mother had cancer back in 1956 when I was in her womb. She refused kemo until I was born. Back then kemo was experimental and she suffered from radiation poisning. Things have changed. My neigbor/neighbour recently had breast cancer and had a double mastectomy. The emotional wear and tear was worst than the surgery. After surgery, while recouperating at home, she couldn't breath. They sent an ambulance and I babysat her dog. She was sent home the next day. Apparently she had a panic attack, she was scared, nothing more. Make sure you have a support group (online or local) that has experienced cancer. It really doesn;'t matter if it is colon cancer or breast cancer as long as others who got diagnosed and survived are part of that support group.
Cancer can be like a stalker. Just when you think it's out of your life it rears it's ugly head, and says hello. I missed you and you're not getting away this time. This happened to my oldest brother, Walter, several times. He had multiple surgeries with a 10% chance of surviving and is healthy, happy and a travelholic at 67. I have lost my Mom (at age 34) and my sister to cancer (she quit kemo and opted for surgery). Another brother, Danny, survived, after undergoing all kemo treatments, and I too underwent a surgeryback in 1984, (where they burn the cells) sans kemo, but all four others in my immediate family had kemo. The most important thing that seems to deter kemo nausea is to drink double the water they suggest.
For me prayer works, so I'll pray for you.
Edit: Danny swears drinking double the water just prior to treatment, eleviated all nausea. His wife Kris just got diagnosed with breast cancer and is currently undergoing kemo. You got this. You can beat it!
Hello there. I'm a complete stranger but I'd like to send you my best wishes.
Wishing you a happy and speedy recovery, as you say you caught it early. You got this! :)
Best wishes. Hopefully this world will offer you mini mental "vacations."
Best thoughts for you!.... I was diagnosed with cancer in 2014, and after 3 operations and various procedures, All is going well, I truly hope that to be your outcome, as well ... positive attitude is the key, and you must keep doing the things you love....
Best wishes and prayers ......
Thank you all for the prayers and positive wishes. I am a very posititve person. I even found a positive outlook when my daughter died in '93, there is always a light at the end of the road, it's just waiting to reach it that can drag people down. Instead of waiting to reach it, I am choosing to enjoy the journey and learning everything I can as I go.
Recently..as in last night cause I was too tired to think of anything else and it made me mad, I have decided to take on the Dept of Health in Newfoundland. After 9 months of making a switch of operations, they are dropping the ball for a vast amount of people. Think I should shake things up. My mother was a report for 30 years and I am very out spoken, as many have seen me do on the forums. I'm a fighter and my mother always said if I am angry, direct it to something positive, so will see if I can take on a medical department and legislature to fix their current problems. Point in case, if it had not been for my daughter, I would not have seen the Dr at the Cancer Clinic in St Johns and would not now be getting my treatments, because the Dept of Health seems to be nothing more then a glorified answering service for case workers that do not return calls. It's a mistake to make me angry when I feel I am in the right. I will do my research first to make sure I am making sound arguements for the situation.
Thank you Cho for letting me know you moved this and have resaved the bookmark to reflect that, so there won't be multiple threads on this.
Im glad you put this on here, ALL support is possitive and you will get lots of people wishing you well. Im so glad it responds, they are amazing today and the vast majority of people get rid of it first time without any return, I promise you we all know someone.
Did you miss the free Donkey?, that was a great shame, I will happily buy it for you, just contact me
Remember chin up, you do sound very positive and thats a huge part of getting well again
Stay strong and keep that great attitude! sending healing prayers your way
