If you have questions never be shy. ASK!

I am a breast cancer survivor. Please do your monthly checks and yearly mammograms. Talk to your doctor if you have the least little tiny change. It may save your life...it did mine.
This is my story...I found a teeny tiny little change in my breast 6 mo after my yearly mamm. It was stage 1A breast... See More cancer. I was diagnosed w/Invasive duct carsinoma in July 08 but I move the day after my diagnosis from OR to CA and had to get all new doctors and start all over again. By the time I had my surgery in October it had progressed to stage 4A. Usually there isn't a lot of hope then. I am sooo very lucky. I had wonderful doctors. A supporting husband (at the time) & the most awesome church family a person could ever ask for. God answered mine and many others prayers and here I am today. It was very scary. It was very emotional. It was extremely triumphant. Thank you Jesus.
This is why I always am on the band wagon. Please be careful. I could have lost my life here on earth. My family would have lost a Daughter, Sister, Mother, Grandmother. They all still needed me and I still need them. God isn't finished with me here yet. 8-D I love you all. If you have questions never be shy. ASK!
