3 ReactionsWith little info, a diagnosis is scary. I am one who walked through my breast cancer in July of 2021 knowing that with each step done, biopsy, scan, MRI, mammogram, ultrasound, more was known. Medicine has come so far.
Please come back when you know more. We are here for you to let you know hope lives hear.

2 ReactionsThis site has been a great source of information and comfort for me since I was diagnosed and treated last year. The cancer experience can be even scarier for loved ones than the patient. Keep thinking positive, listen to doctors and friends, welcome information, and know that you and your wife are not alone. There are lots of us out there! Cancer is very treatable for the most part these days. Take it one day at a time, and share your story with others if you feel that'll help. Accept help and friendship. Take it easy. Cancer can actually be a life changing experience, in the best possible way (odd as that may sound.) Hang in there. Sending prayers and hugs to you both. You can do this.

1 ReactionAsk around for the best oncology team in your area. If you are not in a fairly large city, you may need to go a little farther to get the best treatment. And pray. I got good advice and wonderful encouragement at church, from women who had survived breast cancer. And let her know how much you love her.
