In Dec 2011 I find out I had breast cancer my heart felt heavy, but I know cancer was not going to take my life. In Jan 2012 I had my right breast and some lymph nodes removed and in 2013 my left breast. I had chemo for four months, my son who is the best son in the whole world told me that I was going to live with him and his family or he was going to live with me after the surgery and the chemo, so he lived with me... they had cats and I have a dog. I lost all my hair but I looked pretty good with no hair :-)... radiation for 28 day. I was in lots of pain my dog knew this, when I would woke up in pain my dog was sitting by my side with his little paw on my shoulder and he would look down at me like he was saying I know your in pain but it's ok I'm here go back to sleep, it makes me cry a little as I write this. I was so blessed with family and great friends I am one of the lucky ones. Thank GOD!!! I am cancer free for almost 2 1/2 years now!!! May GOD be with all that are is still fighting hang in there! In the picture me and the best son in the whole world!!!
