Last march at the age of 36 years old i was diagnosed with breast cancer. It was such a shock for me at this early age. In March i did the lumpectomy operation and the doctor said that he found 3 out of 8 effected lymph nodes so i had to go through chemotherapy. I started chemo last April. I had 3 cycles of Fec and 3 cycles of Taxotere which i am finding it very very hard. I even spent a week in hospital cause of the white cells that went so down that i had a big infection and i had to have very strong antibiotics through the vein. Now later this month I will be having my last cycle of taxotere and later in august i will have to go through radiation.
It was awful especially for my mother and father and all the family. But you cannot give up you still have to fight.
Well let us hope everything will be alright and pray for all the cancer patients to give them hope and not give up. God will be with us all.
