Can we have a forum for "older" people with bc?

Statistically speaking, it is highly unlikely that my BC would re-occur. However, like 25% of females, I still have the chance that I might get totally new BC. I will be getting mammos long past the time other women do.

Stay with us. We will support you through everything.

And the other medical issues will pop-up in a continuous train. I found a simple way to use k-tape to restrict movement of the offending joint on my left hand. It works fine, and with the assistance of a ring for guiding the yarn, I am knitting those mittens. I have the right one 3/4 done! Did a questionnaire on my left thumb for the doctor this morning. The right thumb is in relative comfort, except for the metacarpal-phalangeal, next to where the basal joint was.

Tippy got a haircut day before yesterday. He told me "hair-cut, thank you" yesterday. I relayed the message to his new groomer.

Justforher- a warm welcome. I echo what others have said. We will be happy to be a virtual shoulder to lean on so please come here as often as you need. Give your self grace as you go through treatment.

Best wishes.
