Story
Well where do i start..... 2015 was hell from start to finish for me and my family. February 2015 my husband was in a car crash and had to be cut out of the vehicle. Thankfully he came away with severe whiplash and some nasty cuts and bruises but it could have been soo much worse. We also found out i was pregnant with our third child in February as well. Unfortunately in april we lost our little angel before we even got to meet him/her. We then had to do the hardest thing we've ever had to do and bury our perfect little star. It really did hurt us like nothing ever before. After this life was quiet for a few month and i was just getting out of bed because i needed to as i have two other beautiful children to look after. In june time i finally woke up and somehow found a way to deal with this grieving process. You never get over it and it never gets easier but you somehow learn to deal with it.
Anyway july time came and my husband, my soulmate and my rock found a lump in my left breast and insisted i got it checked out. I did as he asked and went to the doctors. They were almost certain it was just a 'syst' but because there was cancer in the family the doctor sent me for an urgent scan anyway to be on the safe side. In the meantime of waiting a fortnight for this scan i knew deep down that it was something more than just a syst and started preparing myself for this news i was convinced i was going to get. So july the 27th came around to get this scan and six hours later i was diagnosed wit invasive ductal cancer. Whilst waiting for the next appointment to see what happen next i found out i was pregnant again. I had a mastectomy and then was told if i didn't terminate baby to be able to continue with treatment i would have over a 50% chance of dieing in the next ten year. Heartbroken was an understatement but we had to think of the children we already had. After we agreed to the worst decision I've ever had to make chemo, radiotherapy and herceptin then began. Xxx
