        Hi Susan,

        I am new to the group too. I was diagnosed just over a month ago and I am waiting for a Sentinel Biopsy and Wider Excision. It seems to be taking forever and waiting for an appointment is killing me. It doesn't really feel real I haven't seen a doctor yet (other than the nameless one who did the original biopsy) and I was given the news by a cancer nurse. She was very nice, but they had no paper work to give me to read up on anything and of course I hit the internet to try to get some answers. I wish I hadn't as it has scared the life out of me. I just want it over and done with so I know what I am fully dealing with. 

        Hang in there and you Aramat – we need to stick together.
