Hey Claire, I had a better day yesterday but am now awake at ridiculous o'clock because my brain has gone into overdrive. I am still waiting for a call back from the surgeon to get a plan in place. Sounds like you have a good background to draw on to help with the anxiety and all the uncertainty that comes with this diagnosis. It is comforting to have someone else who understands this journey. Take care, Caroline xx ... View more

Hey Claire, How has today been? I have spent a bit of time talking to friends today which had me feeling almost normal for a few hours but I have come crashing back to reality now. I went to the shops today to get a few things for hospital and I struggled to hold back the tears and raced home to hide again. The rollercoaster ride sure ain't one I would recommend. I hope your doing ok today. Caroline. ... View more

Hi Claire, I don't have endometrial cancer but I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer on friday so I am still trying to get my head around it as well. I have not got any appointments sorted out to see a surgeon yet but it has given us the weekend to tell our boys the news before they go back to school. I live out in the Western district so go past Ballarat on my way to Melbourne. I am struggling with the anxiety as well, I think it is just the waiting for a plan of action and staging that is driving me around the bend. I think I might have to use the diary idea as so far I am alternating between crying, feeling nauseous (anxiety related), worrying and sleeping in short bursts. I have been feeling really alone, so it is nice to know that I am not the only one feeling like this. Athough we haven't told many people yet.

Caroline xx.   ... View more
