It was Nov.2008 when i found my lump,I was dressed for bed and i leaned over and my arm rubbed across my left breast and i felt it.I was like what is that and about a week later i went to the doctor who sent me for a mammogram and thats when they said it didn't look good.It was the day before Thanksgiving and i had to wait all holiday weekend before i could get a biopsy.It was the longest weekend 0f my life,but i finally got it and it came back positive it was breast cancer.I had a lumpectomy in Jan.2009 and he tested 2 lymp nodes which came back clear,my lump was 3" which is considered medium.But then when i went to my oncologist and they told me i was triple negitive, which is when the cancer is not hormonally produced i was devastated.So i had to take a more aggresive treatment,but made it thru and thru radiation and now i'm doing good.I pray everyday that it doesn't return because i want to see my future grand kids,they are why i'm fighting this.I had just turned 41 when i found this out,i had went for my yearly check-up in Feb.2008 and he ordered a mammo because of my age but he didn't say he felt anything so i put off getting one.PLEASE ladies don't wait for your doctor to get one,go yourself.
