Hi Feuer Frei,
I am really sorry to hear that.
My girlfriend went through all the treatment with breast cancer in 2002. When she was 32 years old. Cancer does not respect any youth.
The sooner the cancer is detected, the better are the chances. So good luck, the often mentioned 5 years of risk are over in her case and she is in good condition today.
From my experience, there are a lot of questions and fears regarding the therapy before it starts. That is not only for you but your relatives as well.
I guess you chose a good hospital with good reputation and with good staff as well.
If there is a chance to, ask your doctor there, do not hide your fears and the questions you might have. But they are often too busy in the hospitals. If so, try to see the doctor you usually go to, he / she will have the answers.
Even in the last couple of years medicine made great steps forward. Chemo therapy used to be very hard, depending on what is used, how much and how often. But it does not have to be. In fact, my girlfriend would have had a different treatment today.
But the therapy is as individual as the cancer is. And we fear the most what we do not know or understand.
Feuer Frei, ich wünsche Dir das Allerbeste. Niemals aufgeben!
