I wasn't the type to check myself. In August of 2009, I happened to do just that. It forever changed my life. I had a mammogram & ultrasound. My daughter & I decided we we going to take a vacation in September. We were getting mani/pedi's done prior to our trip when the dreaded call came in. "You have cancer!" We went on our vacation despite the news. October 2009 I had a bilateral mastectomy with reconstruction. November, December, & January were my chemo months. Now 5 years later, I have remarried. I have 3 great kids & the very best friends that were my support system. I can say I wouldn't change a thing. I believed, I fought, & I won!!!
