I have searched the archives and not found much help there, just a few similar cases but not solutions.
Permission to Post.  
A 36 year old mother nursing a 1 year old had a breast biopsy earlier this week and has now been told she has breast cancer. She had envisioned having a long and loving breastfeeding experience with her baby.

Does anyone have supportive resources for mothers in this situation?    Treatment modalities will make a difference in what her options are, of course, but I was wondering if anyone can recommend any helpful blogs or support groups for moms in similar circumstances, so that she knows she is not alone.
