Re: feeling wobbly today
Emma, It's hard in the early stages of recovery to not worry about reccurence. We all go through that. Unless you really don't feel well or have a specific sympton they do not do tests. You have a great prognosis and I know you love your children. You will be there for them. Maybe it is a good thing to go back to work and get your mind off your cancer. Please know it is normal to be scared about the cancer retuning but your little boys need you and you need to go on with your life. I wish you the best Emma. Mary L
