I have not ever had breast cancer nor any other kind of cancer. But other people in my family have. And one person in my family who I really look up to for it is, my Grandmother. Two years ago, in April of 2011 my grandmother had went in for her monthly mammogram. She had came home and acted normal. But, I had heard her talking on the phone with her brother, telling him that she has to get another biopsy because they had found 3 lumps in her right breast. A couple weeks later she had gone to get another biopsy and she came home with a blank face. She talked to my mother. And at that moment I knew something was wrong. She told us 2 months later in July of 2011 she told us she had stage 2 breast cancer. She had gotten surgery, and it took awhile to heal. She also had gotten radiation done. Then a couple months later in 2012 she was told by her Doctor that she was in remission. I had thanked God. But now, in present time December 2013, there is red pigmentation on her breast, and a lump under her arm and on her breast. Her breast is almost as if like deforming. She has to go in for yet another surgery. When she told us this on Christmas Eve she broke down and cried. She also never cries. She is very kept to herself. She is no longer is remission. Please, if you think you might have something cancerous, get checked. You would want to get checked earlier so you may have a better chance of going into remission and staying. Please pray for all people who have any kind of cancer.
