Just get me through this!

Hi everyone, I am a new member and have been reading the posts and think you are all amazing! I am 29 years old, I chose to have a bi-lateral mastectomy to hopefully increase my chances of living a long life without a recurrance. I then had 6 sessions of TAC(I just finished last week, yippie!) and now I will have my reconstructive surgery next week and then start the Herceptin at the end of the month for a year. My question to all of you is how to you get past the fear? I know everyday is a blessing and I am enjoying all life has to offer, but I don't want to be affraid forever. I was so healthy before the cancer, I'm a distance runner, avid organic eater, and I have been on flax seed. Any thoughts on how to get past the worrying would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Penny Rebecca
