Diagnosed today, after what I thought was a fairly routine check last week. Biopsy and CT scan show cancer in one breast and has spread to nearby lymph nodes, but not anywhere else. Looking at surgery within a few weeks and then chemo etc.
I have literally no experience of this, no one in my family has gone through this. DH and I are both in bits and need to find a way to a) rearrange the holiday of a lifetime which we were due to go on in a fortnight and b) somehow tell the DC who are 3 and 6
I am veering between crying uncontrollably and being strangely calm, just need someone to talk to who has been through this, anyone please?
