Thought I was too young

I thought that something like this could never happen to someone so young, boy was I wrong. IT CAN HAPPEN TO ANYONE. I was diagnosed with ductal carcinaoma 12 years ago at the age of 22. The whole process was very hard to take in. I had a lumpectomy on my right breast that was a pencil widths length away from my breastbone. All my lymp nodes came back clear. I stayed home to do the treatments even though the doctors wanted me to stay far from home. But no doctor compared to the care of my wonderful mother. She has been my rock through the whole thing. I am now the mother of a beautiful and very happy go lucky little 6 year old boy. he is my joy.
