Breaking the News about Your Diagnosis

1 When I was diagnosed with breast cancernearly a year ago，I found myself at a loss for words atfirst. Over time，however，Ideveloped some pointers （点子），which I hope will helpothers.

2 During the first few weeks of emotional “aftershocks”（余悸）from the diagnosis，I found myself unable to utter the word “cancer”.Still，I wanted to share the news with myrelatives and friends who already knew that I'd had a biopsy（活检）and were anxiously awaiting my telephone call. I did the best Icould，which is all anyone can do in this situation.When I called them，I said，“Whatwe feared has happened.” They immediately knew what Imeant.

3 Nearly a year after my diagnosis，I find myself more comfortable telling people “1 was diagnosed with cancer” instead ofsaying '“1 have cancer.” Onsome deep level，I don't want to “own” this illness. Choose language thatsuits you when you share your news. And keep in mind that there is no one “right” way of doing this.

4 Most people，afterhearing your announcement，will be curious about thenext step.

They may wonder if you will be undergoingradiation therapy and/or chemotherapy（化疗）.They maywonder where and when you will have surgery. Answer their questions as best youcan，but keep in mind that “1don't know right now” or “I'mstill in too much shock to think about that” are goodanswers.

5 Wait until the initial wave of strongemotions has passed before telling the children in your life. Don't overwhelm（使不知所措）very young children with too much information. Assure them that，even if you will be in the hospital for a while，they will see you every day and they will be cared for. Olderchildren may already fear the word “cancer”，so be prepared to reassure them. Emphasize the positive steps thatdoctors will be taking to treat your illness.
