MY BELOVED HUSBAND PHIL IS OUR ROCK OUR STRENGTH AND THE CENTER OF OUR UNIVERSE.I FOUND SOMETHING THAT I FELT NEEDED MEDICAL ATTENTION. HIS DOCTOR DISMISSED IT AND TOLD HIM TO TELL ME THAT HE IS "ASYMMETRICAL." I PURSUED WHAT MY RADAR INSTICT INTUITION AND SIXTH SENSE DICTATED.HACKENSACK UNIVERSITY MEDICAL CENTER AND OVERLOOK HOSPITAL SAVED OUR LIVES. INVASIVE DUCTAL CARCINOMA. 6 LYMPHNODES. HE HAD A MASTECTOMY CHEMOTHERAPY AND RADIATION. HE WAS STOIC. A SOLDIER. HE NEVER COMPLAINED OR BECAME ANGRY.HE FELT BAD FOR OTHERS AND TO THIS DAY PAYS IT FORWARD. HIS TREATMENT WAS BRUTAL. MEN HAVE DIFFERENT SIDE EFFECTS. THE MEDS HAD HIM HICCUPPING FOR 3 HOURS. FROM HEAD TO TOE HE WAS COMPROMISED AND ALWAYS SMILED AND HAD AN OPTIMISTIC POSITIVE ATTITUDE.WE PRAY EVERYDAY THAT HE IS HEALTHY AND STRONG. HE IS THE EXAMPLE OF WHAT EVERYONE SHOULD FOLLOW. HE GOES TO THE BREAST CANCER WALKS..RACES..AND DONATES. HE NEVER LOOKS BACK HE ALWAYS LOOKS FORWARD AND WE PRAISE HIM AN LOVE HIM TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH.MAY EVERYONE BE HEALTHY ALWAYS.
