Hi there,

I am just so happy.
Yesterday was my first round of chemo, and they gave me the strongest dose available. Honestly, though, I feel like I didn't even receive it. My body isn't reacting at all—not even a little bit. I know my hair will eventually fall out, but that’s the least of my worries right now...

Thank you all again for the support.

Best,

Thank you all so much for the encouragement. I'm getting ready to start chemo tomorrow or the day after, so I'll check back in with you then. You've really helped me through this...
thank you, thank you, ..............

Hi everyone. I had a mastectomy due to breast cancer at the beginning of May. I'm supposed to start chemotherapy in a few days, but honestly, I am terrified.
I’m only 24, and it feels like life has thrown everything at me all at once. There are moments when I feel like I'm losing my footing, but I have every reason to keep fighting—my three-year-old daughter needs me. My biggest fear right now is the chemo itself; I just don't know how my body is going to handle it...

Hi...
