Chemo cycle 1

When the thought of next chemotherapy comes to ma mind.. its not scary but i
Dnt know how it is. It is uncertain. Its like a seemingly bottomless chasm.
Which is dark and hopeless and cold. I know there is life beyond it there is light beyond it.
But i cant see it I cant feel the warmth.
So once again keeping my hopes high n lets jump.
I know i will survive.

I had to go through multiple surgeries.
I had multiple lipomas and my cancer tumour was misdiagnosed as one of them.
But after I got it removed because of cosmetic reasons of course, it had been sent for biopsy and the report confirmed it as cancer. Then I had to go through another surgery called as segmental mastectomy. In this surgery, only the part of the breast containing the cancer is removed. The goal is to remove the cancer as well as some surrounding normal tissue. And the doctor removed some tissue from my back to fill the gap.
After that I had to go through another surgery to insert the chemo port.

Now comes the chemotherapy. Chemotherapy practically involves very less or no pain. But the side-effects are hard to manage. During that time I really questioned my survival. But it was over in few days leaving behind the scary memory.
