Breast Cancer

I had a mammogram done and they found a lump on my left breast and they think that it might be cancer. The day that I had my mammogram appointment I started to cry I keep saying why me I know that I can't handle this.I can handle the recent death of my mom and my nephew but this is the one thing that I can't handle is breast cancer. Lucky I have support from my husband and family and friends people have been coming up to me and telling me that they know what I'm going through but do they really know?

Im really sorry you are having this scare in your life right now.  And it is just a scare for now.  You do not know what the results will be.  My mom used to say, "No sense borrowing trouble.  There is enough given to you as it is."  As to, do people know what you are going through, unfortunately more people than you might think have been told something or other ""MIGHT"" be cancer.  That word alone strikes a cord of fear in everyone.  So I am hoping along with everyone that it turns out to be nothing more serious than a cyst and am sending a hug of understanding as you wait.

It was not supposed to be like this

In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More
