Back in March 2013 my twin Diana was diagnosed with breast cancer she had a lump in her breast for over 3 years by the time they found her cancer it was in stage two. Two days after her surgery her Dr ask me to get check because we are indentical chances are that I will have it to. My mom and my family insisted to get check in the back of my mind was the question of what if? finally I told my mom once my sister is done with chemo I will get check because I did not wanted my mom to suffer wirh both us being sick. Exacly 3 months and the day of sister last chemo I was diagnosed with breast cancer stage 3 the news were devastating because I had so many things I wanted to do and now my life will change forever. It happened to be we both have the same type of cancer mine was a little more aggressive than my twin the road for recovery has not been easy and every day is a challage but having the support of my family and friends and the love of my kids is what keep me going . Every day I thank god for a second chance because I will be able to enjoy my family and friends and finally do all those things that for one reason or another I was not able to do.
I am happy to report that my twin is doing great after 6 chemos and 1 1/2 month of radiation she is well yay! as for me I end up getting 21 chemos 1 1/2 months radiation 3 surgeries I still have more treatment to finish plus one more surgery like i say before the road of recovery is been super hard but at this point in my life the only option I have is to "NEVER GIVE UP"
