strong

I was diagnosed on August 12th with breast cance. rI went throug a denial stage and with the support and my family and my extended family that I work with at Keizer Lowes I'm making it. it's been a struggle chemo and the injection I have afterwards to boost my white cells makes me very sick I have learned that keeping a positive attitude and
my faith in God that you make it through it. I have one more chemo appointment scheduled for February 6 and then I'm done with chemo then three weeks later I start my radiation 5 days a week for 7 weeks and then I'll be done be done with that. I also will start Herceptin injections once every 3 weeks that will target my het2 receptive gene. I'll do that for a year and then the celebration will start you need to have a positive attitude and keep on going because there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I truly believe faith in God positive attitude family and extended family support you can make it through anything.
