Welcome to Mayo Connect!
As said by @katgob above, this is the place where you can talk about any worries, concerns.
You say that you are new to the diagnosis- does that mean that you don’t have a treatment plan yet?
It’s normal to have emotions- it’s a scary diagnosis. I remember myself 34 years ago- my head was spinning.
I felt better once I knew what I had to face.
There should also be breast cancer support groups locally- through your hospital maybe.
I think your mother is happy to talk to you and support you.
Husbands often get as scared as you are! They also do well to take part in the treatment planning.
Hang in there! You will feel more in control once you know what is ahead for you.
I thought of it as a job I had to do. However, that didn’t stop me from having emotional episodes!
