I was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer at age 34, when nursing my 6-month-old daughter.
Do your best to maintain a sense of humor. Laughing helps your state of mind and eases the anxiety of friends and family who have no idea what to say or do. Graciously accept the help of family and friends. Tell them what you need, when you need it, and how you need it.
Don’t rush into selecting a doctor or course of treatment. It’s natural to want to act with immediacy, but trust me, it is more important to be prudent and select the very best team of doctors, hospital, and treatment for YOUR specific type of cancer.
Keep the faith!
