in 2009 my husband had a heart attack 2 months later i was told i had breast cancer ,i had 2 lumps removed & noad clearence then chemo & radio i bloomed on radio but my last chemo i almost died my bloods went really low i was in christies hospital for 1 week & for my 60th birthday , i am this year hoping for my 5years cancer free , we sold our house as my husband couldnt get a job & live with my son & have some fab holidays to live our lives to the full . i stayed very positve & still do & i hope to live to a ripe old age & couldnt have got through this without my family & friends . i also had cold cap on my chemo was horrendous but well worth it to me my hair went very thin but didnt loose it all & as my daughter was getting married 5 months after treatment it meant i had a bit more confidence on the big day . if you are reading this & just about to start this journey be brave & look to the future as i have done . the pic i have enclosed is a tattoo i have on my foot all the family had one to raise money for my local chemo centre the tattooist did them all free & i raise nearly £600 .xxxx Sorry i cant get the pic to up load xx
