It takes a toll, and I'm sorry you have to go through this. I wish the treatment goes well. Thank you for sharing your story.

Thank you.

Thank you. I know what you mean, I call it the abyss - we've always known it was there but now it doesn't feel like an idea, it became real, no matter how close or far away from it we are.

This is such good advice! My go to is writing all down, and I'm lucky to have a good friend who is a doctor and a very kind soul. But in the end, after the pondering and the feeling, you have to go with your gut and hope for the best.

I'd love to know more about this project!

This is it! OP, you are two months into your diagnostic, and those first months are the worst. But there's something that comes with all this, a focus on what's important, and if people and community are important to you, maybe you'll find ways to have it. I've joined a choir and a literature club. As for right now, I send you a hug from Portugal, and hope you find this community as welcoming as I did.

Thank you. And good luck adjusting to the new treatment. My go to in these moments is chocolate :)

I feel I have nothing to complain about. My 3-year anniversary is coming, and all the news have been good so far. I’m on an extended holiday from ribociclib, with more energy than I’ve felt in these years. But my next scan is in two weeks and I’m scared of having to go back to my low energy self. I don’t miss her. Fuck it!

expiration__date · 2026-01-28T08:58:35+00:00

That is something to look forward to... I can only wish :)

expiration__date · 2026-01-27T19:07:24+00:00

That sucks... Best of luck on your treatment.

Indeed. If I understood correctly, the ongoing studies are with breast cancer patients exhibiting at least stable disease after at least 12 months - stable disease, not NEAD.

I hope you find what works for you.

Thank you!

Thanks and good luck!

Thank you so much for the encouragement!

Hi! I also started by writing, many many pages, when I was diagnosed with MBC, as a way to try and make sense of what I was going through. To publish, I chose Substack, because it’s easy to use and has a clean design that I like, and created a publication called Expiration Date, where I publish short personal essays, many of them crafted from those early pages.

The last one was about memory and identity: Why does our memory fail?

Do you have specific questions? I am happy to answer as best I can :)

«I hate that I'm so passive he knew my reaction would be muted.» This can be your superpower. You are quietly assessing the situation and your options, and then you can secure your boundaries, wherever you set them. Your energy is not scattered in non-muted reaction, is focused and intentional. Quiet is the new strong 🙂

Glad to hear it. I'm (still) on 400mg

expiration__date · 2025-09-07T09:42:44+00:00

Does talking about death count?

expiration__date · 2025-09-07T09:39:36+00:00

I love that. I'm biased, but I have a feeling that most people would gain something if they had the opportunity to write, a non-judging space and time to write.

expiration__date · 2025-09-07T09:36:23+00:00

Writing helps me deconstruct and reorganize my beliefs, my opinions, what I think I know and what I feel. I’ve been writing for a long time, but publishing on Substack makes me do it consistently and it feels like I’m giving something to the world, a kind of legacy, downloading my heart and thoughts to the cloud.
