Hi Tracie Just read your post. Yes it certainly is all overwhelming when you are first diagnosed. It leaves you stunned that you really cant believe how this could happen to you. As you can see by my med info I had two lumpectomies, radiation, bilateral mastectomy chemo and have just finished the herceptin. I look back now at all that stuff and I can hardly remember all the details it just seemed to progress so quickly. I think I would call those times "the eye of the storm" that feeling just came to be now as I write this. By I must tell you as I am coming up to two years NED I am feeling so much calmer, stronger and in some strange way content. I know I have done all I can for this situation and I will continue to be as positive and strong as I can, live each day one step at a time and we will get through this. I wish you peace and love.
