Re: Dont know what to think or feel
Cyber hug coming your way.
All of us have felt just like you do. Our lives were changed forever by the words "you have breast cancer". We do have downers from a article read, a sly comment made, an new pain here, an ache there and a fortune cookie without a fortune. But... we also many ups, a drug called Herceptin, this support group, new drugs, new trials, experienced reachers working on a cure and dedicated oncologists.
Try to think of the positives and all the blessings we have. Also remember you are not alone. It is good to share those uncertain feelings with your "sisters." We all have those days.
Keep your chin up and keep smiling.
