When I found out I had breast cancer, the first thing I asked my Oncologist was, "Is this going to kill me?" He said no. From that moment on I thought of my cancer as no more serious than any other time I had been sick. I just had to go through more steps to be well. I went on the Internet and found all I could about breast cancer and treatment. It helped that I had a great support system at home and a great team of doctors. I have been pronounced cancer free and am awaiting my reconstruction which should take place in Jan 2011. Having a positive outlook and educating yourself about your particular breast cancer is the best medicine.
