Hi from an HER2 Daughter Newbie

Our family's rollercoaster started 2 months ago when my beautiful mum was diagnosed with breast cancer. The first few days were an absolute nightmare, I thought it was a death sentence, and soon. Although i'm an adult, my Mum and I are very close, and I desperately want her there when I have children, when they turn into terrible teens, and when she is old and grey.

Having learnt more about her prognosis, and with treatment underway, I'm much more optimistic about the future. However, I was wondering how others deal with that 'what if' of recurrence?

And does anyone have any tips for getting through chemo (TCH)?

And does life ever start to feel normal again? It feels like cancer is never far from my thoughts.

Mostly just wanted to say hi though to any other HER2 family members (or people with BC themselves) on this site.
