I found a lump in my right breast, but was also having gall bladder problems at the same time. After my mammogram, which did not show the lump, I had a sonogram that did. I had gall bladder removal on November 23, 2005 and the surgeon removed the lump at the same time. I was told that it was stage 2A cancer.
Another surgery on December 16, 2005 to make sure margins were clear. I began chemo in January of 2006. Then radiation in August of 2006.
Here it is, almost 9 years after my diagnosis and I am happy to say that there has been no sign of it coming back. I pray that this will continue.
I have 4 grandchildren and 7 grandchildren and I just don't have time to be bitter or feel sorry for myself. I am truly blessed!!
