6~24~13 @ age 37 i was diagnosed with Stage3 IDC & triple positive, which means it is very aggressive. I just finished 16 rounds of chemo and a few of Herceptin. My next step is a double masectomy bc i hv 2 many calcifications. Then 6 wks of radiation & 9 more months of herceptin once every 3 wks. Reconstruction, hopefully, sooner then later. I wanted 2 tell my story bc it is so important 2 hv ur mammos reg. I caught mine a lil late but by the grace of God, im a survivor! I couldnt do any of this w/out God, family &my few, TRUE friends, & many many prayers! Let me tell u, if u hv been diagnosed, turn 2 ur Heavenly Father, He wants 2 heal u, if u hv only the faith of a mustard seed. Its gona get rough but if u hv faith, strength & courage, u can beat this awful disease! I HAVE BREAST CANCER BUT BREAST CANCER DONT HAVE ME!
