Hello there,
I am new to this forum as my mother was only diagnosed on Wednesday with breast cancer. It was picked up on a regular mamogram (it was actually due to be her last one given she has just turned 70yrs old/young!) She had a biopsy taken on Wednesday however the doctor has confirmed it is most definitely breast cancer and that it is also located in her lymph nodes. It is safe to say we are all in a state of shock, (I am one of four siblings) Mum has said it has not quite sunk in yet and she feels so well that she can't quite believe she has cancer... I and my sister are terrified we could loose her :-(
I am looking to understand what is the best way to support her please. She goes back to hospital on Tuesday to get the full results of the biopsy and treatment plan options.
Thanks
Emma
