not be afraid to ask your doctor for something to calm your anxiety

and/or something to help you sleep and 2) as I am an overly-analytical

type, my sister gave me Dr. Love's book which helped me get

educated and understand so much more. For me, knowledge is power and

provides some comfort.

My surgery is tomorrow, Monday, and I'll post after I get home.

Trying to stay calm and collected today and focus on the surgery as

HEALING!

Hello,

on August 2nd. 2005 I had the same, breast cancer on stage 2, my chemo

tratment just finished on December 2005,until today is not easy to forget, but

you must support yourself and be strong, just say: " this thing wil be pass " I

have 2 hands and 2 feet to go on, pray every day, pray, pray and pray I

guarantee you God will give you the strength to go on and when the chemo and

readio treatment will be gone, you will be free!!!!!

Prayers for you Janet...Have stage 3 and my fourth year anniversary was around

Memorial Day Week-end...had chemo and radiation. finished on Veterans Day and

Valentines Day 2002-2003...Found out in May 2002 and lost my mom Sept 2002 and

it was hard to go on but I did ...It was even harder because I lived alone at

the time...Life does go on...there are some people out there that care about you

and I found out that other people do not care you have cancer...I found that out

at work...people in the office did not care I had cancer and lost my mom...All

they could think of dont take off work because some of the ladies had to do

extra work when I was off....I would take a week off when I had my chemo on

Mondays...I had to do everything for myself no help except some people my mom

knew took me to my chemo treatments...

Good luck in everything...you are not alone...I have to have a D & C on

Friday out-patient and am scared...
