When a woman is told she has breast cancer she can feel a range of emotions from numbness to fear and anger. The complex series of treatment options offered may be confusing. She can also feel isolated and alone and wonder how she is going to cope.

There will be many occasions when a woman with breast cancer and her family and loved ones need support. This may range from the practical – like where to get a wig, to the emotional – like where to find a retreat for some quiet thinking. Fortunately there are people, organizations and agencies that they can turn to for this support, many of them in the Loddon Mallee region.
