I thought I would post today as it was a year ago to this very day that I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer.
It hasn't been an easy year and there have been tough times but i'm still here and feeling really well.
As soon as I was well enough I went straight back to work full time so I didn't always have time to meet with other ladies going through the same thing or keep up to date with some of the ladies I met during chemo or visits to Meditation or Yoga so this community is great.
My message is that there is light at the end of the tunnel, I feel really well, I do get tired sometimes, I get ridiculous hot and cold flushes (thanks Tamoxifen), my hair has grown back (different but its back) and I have nearly lost all the weight I put on during treatment. I'm back at work full time, back at the gym, my teenage daughter expects me to run around after her all the time and I have to do the cleaning, washing and ironing again so I would say things are pretty much back to normal but overall I'm looking forward to the next stage of my life. Cancer changed me but didn't defeat me.
