      I am so sorry about your friends. I have lost three close friends this year-- two to cancer, but I had closure as they were here in person. I am so sorry. Could you plant a small shrub, tree or flower as a memorial? That helped me. Hugs and sympathy.

    • Close Bereavement
      Type: Loss of a Parent

      My mom died of lung cancer in June of 2006. Three months later I was diagosed with breast cancer. I seem to be having a harder time than ever dealing with the grief of losing my mom. It seems like I was numb the first few months, and now the pain is heavy on my heart.

      Treatments

      Crying Not Working
      Prayer Too Soon to Tell

    • Close Breast Cancer
      Stage: I (T1 N0)

      I was diagnosed with breast cancer in September 06. It was just 3 months after my Mom passed away from lung cancer. I was in shock...they found it from my mammogram. It was hard facing the Dr. appointments and radiation treatments alone. Everyone I know is working. My mom would have been there by my side if she was still here. I am still grieving over her loss, so this felt like a double whammy.

      Treatments

      Nolvadex Too Soon to Tell
      Hot flashes!
      Radiotherapy Working / Worked
      I had partial breast, exterior radiation 2x a day for 5 days. I was extremely fatigued. Burns were not too bad, but my breast was very swollen and tender.
      Surgery Working / Worked
      The tumor was about 1 cm. I had a lumpectomy with 5 nodes removed. The nodes were negative. My upper, arm is numb & sore. I hope the feeling comes back.

    • Open Menopause

      Once I was diagnosed with breast cancer, I had to go off my birth control pills. I haven't had a period since...I have hot flashes at least once an hour, and I cry over everything :~( I can't take hormones because of my breast cancer being estrogen/progestron positive. (the hormones are like a fertilizer for the cancer cells).

      Treatments

      Wellbutrin Working / Worked
      My emotional rollarcoaster improved drastically when I started taking Wellbutrin!

    • Open Hypothyroidism

      I have just been diagnosed with hypothyroidism...and just recently finished treatment for breast cancer. It seems like I turned 50 and fell apart.

      Treatments

      Synthroid Too Soon to Tell
      I was told over the phone that I had hypothyroidism after blood test results. I am kind trying to learn what I can about it before my next appointment in 2 months.

    • Open Interracial Relationships

      I am white, my partner is African American. We have been together for about 8 years.

    • Open Financial Challenges

      I live paycheck to paycheck. My credit card debt is choking me. I feel like the credit card companies are a bunch of vultures. I somehow hope to get out of this financial mess!
