Well, the only thing is with DCIS it has an extremely good prognosis, doesn’t it? I mean you, really the only thing is you feel you’re making an awful lot of fuss over nothing. And that’s one of the things that, but you’re not because you’re having to go through all the, you know, if you’re having a mastectomy, you’re having to go through all the problems, the body change. You’ve still got worries that it may come back, it may come in the other breast. You’ve got a higher risk of that. You’ve got a higher risk of other things and you’ve got every reason to feel worried about it.

But it has got a very good prognosis. So, you know, you’re not like people with invasive, you’ve got a lot better chance of carrying on a normal life. And actually you can carry on and actually have a more enriched life really because it’s, I’ve actually gained an awful lot, a terrific amount. It’s not the end of the world. It’s different [laughs]. it’s something that you can just get on now and really start to live your life because that’s made me realise that’s what you’ve got to do, is get out there and live your life. We all of us plod along on our everyday lives and don’t realise it.

What I’m saying to the woman and everybody that is going through it, they found the cancer early, they took it out. They reconstruct me, you had the operation, you went through the chemo. There’s nothing to be, even if you have the chemo, you have the radiotherapy and everything, there is nothing to be… I look at it, there is nothing to be sad about because they are trying to make you better and you’re still getting on with your life. And that is the way I look at it, you know. That’s why I’m not, you see I’m laughing and it may look like I haven’t had it. I haven’t had a bad experience but I have had two breasts where the cancer was in, maybe not in the left, in the right hand because, as I said, this, that the dc thing, stuff it could either go that way or this way. It could have been cancer or it couldn’t have been. But I’ve got two, I had two mastectomies. You know, and my stomach and it’s still not better yet, my stomach still isn’t better. But you just get on with what you have to get on with and make yourself, you know.

Help it along, eat the right stuff go, on walks. Do a bit of exercise. You know, even if you go to work you can still go when you get home from work. Because when I used to work, I used to finish at 7 oclock in the evening I still used to go for walks. And this was in the winter. My friend and I, up the road, go for walks, you know, just to keep yourself fit.

So at the moment I can’t see any down side to it, I just cannot. You might say, Oh, you haven’t had my experience, you don’t know what I’m going through, you have your husband for backup But even if I think, you must have somebody, even if I think I didn’t have my husband I would, I still wouldn’t see, apart from having the cancer which is a downside, I still wouldn’t see a downside because I’m getting the treatment and I’m getting better. You know, and that’s the way I look at it. So all I can see is a positive side to everything. I think that’s all I have to say [laughs].
