After all your kind responses I thought it was only fair to let you know how things were going.
I have started chemotherapy I am due to have four cycles and am in the middle of my first.So far so good really I dont feel too bad and friends and family have been great.
The plan is to complete the chemotherapy have a couple of months to build myself back up and then have surgery in the new year.I am trying to stay positive and just live for today without dwelling on whats happening or the future too much.I am totally trusting of my doctors who seem to be well respected and so far the care I have recieved has been fantastic.
Thanks Gay
