I am 39 years old with a beautiful blond hair, blue eyed little boy who is 23 months old. My OB GYN wrote a script for a baseline mammogram in Feb 2009. In September 2009 I still had not found time to go. A friend of mine had a cancer scare and I remembered the script in my briefcase and FINALLY made time to go - just to get a baseline. The baseline came back abnormal. The diagnostic made a biopsy necessary. The biopsy came back positive and an MRI was scheduled. The MRI showed another small area which will have to be checked prior to surgery being scheduled. Yes, friends, I am going through this as we speak. The positive site is .77 centimeters, undetectable by feel, found by the grace of God after I found time for a routine baseline mammogram. I'm not sure where I am headed with this. Surgery is a definite, however, the new area has thrown a wrinkle in plans for surgery ASAP. My concern is for my son, I don't want him to grow up without me. I'm sure I am at the beginning of a loooooong journey, one I need friends to help me with.
