I am a single mother of a 5 year old. At the time that I found my breast cancer my child was 3 years old and I was 34. I went to the Doctor and he sent me for my mammogram. The radiologist told me that it was a swollen milk duct and to come back in 6 months. When I came back 6 months later I had stage 2 ductal breast cancer. It had reached the lymph nodes under my arm. I cried but I fought through the Chemo and the surgeries and the radiation. I have been cancer free now for 2 years this month. I learned that when it seems to be the darkest moment of your life, it's actually the brightest. I would never change my fight for anything. It has shown me not to give up, and to live life everyday. But most of all treasure and love your family.
