Christina Applegate

wow! i never knew this, saw her on Friends as a celebrity guest, she is soo entertainng and a very funny girl, the sweeetest thing 😀

thats so brave of her i think. so many women wouldnt because they were affraid of the surgery and the aftermath but its the safest and most surest option. good on her!

i got a call from hospital yesterday
and i had actually forgotten about it
they are proceeding with a biopsy.
they believe they need to know what they are dealing with now.
and to plan for treatment if i need it after the birth.

Hugs from me to you too, Sharna. I hope you find out everything is clear ASAP. xx

I think part of the problem here is it makes it difficult being just words typed on a screen – as no one knows what tone of voice you`re using – I`ve experienced problems like that before with emails/text msgs etc. That`s why sometimes it`s helpful to be overly cautious in making sure ppl know you`re not directing a comment at them – just to be sure.
Sharna no one wants you to stop opening up on the forums – we`re all here to help eachother out best we can, whether it`s beauty tips or moral support with life problems. Everyone was just trying to say supportive things – no one was trying to belittle anyone`s situation – everyone was sharing different experiences with cancer – as unfortunately it affects like 1 in 3 or something like that? So odds are everyone has a personal experience, or someone close to them has.
This is not in any way an attack on you sharna – but sometimes your comments can come across quite abrupt – which I`ve gotten used to as just how you write, as I`m sure many have, but maybe just be aware of that as some people can take that as you being not so friendly?

Perhaps you should have stated that your comments weren`t aimed at anybody who responded to you in the thread. You`re not being targeted, I think people just thought you were having a go at them for trying to be sympathetic (which it did look like). While none of us may know exactly what you`re going through we may know somebody close who does, or has experienced something similar (my little boy had a cancer scare last year) and all we were trying to do was offer you some sympathy and/or empathy. I don`t know if you would have preferred nobody to reply to what you wrote or what you were expecting to be replied? But if it wasn`t aimed at us, it wasn`t very clear who you were aiming it at.

i was never directing any of this to anyone in this forum.
it was letting it out it was from ppl i havent heard from in like 4-6mths that my mum took it apon herself to tell them
after getting phone call after phone call from my mums friends (NOT MY OWN)
saying how sorry they are etc…
if you for once thought it my head, 20 times repeating what was going on etc
Getting a CALL AT WORK to be told oh yeah by the way we told you a wrong result isnt a nice in any way
on a day would play complete havoc with your emotions when you are trying to be positive.
and excuse me jayne it wasnt a “”dodgy papsmear reading”” it was a WRONG result.
Which ended up telling me i have SIN3 cancer cells.
I thought i could post this here instead of starting a new thread.
but now i can see that there was never any point turnign to anyone on this thread, or even opening up
as that i am being targeted and in a time where i dont need it no do i believe it is fair.
Being told that you may be induced or even worse go thru a c section which isnt your choice isnt a nice way
to greet your last trimester. both my mum and gran went thru this cancer, so to me it is rather real that the possibility of this being bad is quite high.
I think you are out of line to be making such comments to a person that is going thru a S**T load.

Ok, let me get this straight…
Loretta posted the first post for this thread-
“”After being diagnosed with breast cancer, Christina Applegate opted to have a double mastectomy – pretty drastic move, but very gutsy. She`s cancer free now, which is great news – but still a scary option to go for.””
Sharna`s response to this was-
“”as i got the call this morning that i have cancerous cells from a recent pap smear i kno how it feels.””
After numerous posts offering Sharna best wishes, including mine, which was not intended as a “”I know how you feel””, but as a “”Take control of your own health””, Sharna responds with-
“”how can they even start to compare their situation to mine?!?””
Sharna, you should re-read this whole thread from beginning to end. People who aren`t pregnant can`t know how you feel? If Christina Applegate was to read this, she may be pretty offended that you, who has a dodgy papsmear reading, knows how she feels, having both her breasts removed? Do you see the irony in your remarks?
I understand that pregnancy, health scares and stress can blur your judgement, but you are out of line this time.

Sharna – I think it`s time for you to stop being a victim. The people who have responded to you in this thread have been nothing but supportive and kind, yet all you can do is complain about it. I know your situation is frightening, and that`s not because I`ve been pregnant while having a cervical cancer concern, but because I`m human (as are all the others on here), and at some stage you`re going to have to accept that people will try to empathise with you even if they haven`t been through exactly what you`re going through.
We all hope that nothing bad happens, but you need to stop behaving so poorly or you will have no one there to support you through the tough times.

right i am gonna explode!!!
after havin to repeat myself 20 times yesterday was was going on
i am now getting ppl comparing my experience to theirs…
which is annoying because
1. they are not pregnant
2. they were not told negative results were actually positive 3-4 mths later..

so how can they even start to compare their situation to mine?!?
