I was diagnosed with breast cancer at 41 yrs old in 2009. I had surgery (double partial mastectomy),33 radiation treatments, Lupron shots monthly & Aromasin daily. The week after I finished my last radiation treatment I headed to Cancun, Mexico with my dad, stepmom, daughter, granddaughter & my soon to be son in law for my daughter's beach wedding and a week relaxing and having fun in Cancun. What a wonderful way to unwind and give up my worries for awhile. I have had a struggle the past 1 1/2 years but life is good and I am alive, I'm a full time student and made the Dean's list. I now have another granddaughter and those two girls are the light of my life. The 3 yr old calls me daily & tells me she loves me her NeeNee (that's me) and tells me to "be careful NeeNee" in her tiny squeeky 3 yr old voice and I love it. Granddaughters make life special and they make me so very happy. They help to put the fight back into me.
