In March of 1995, I had selective surgery done. When I went back for my followup, they told me they found cancer. I went thru six weeks of radiation treatments and am now cancer free from breast cancer.The good part was that had I not done this surgery, they probably would not have found it early. That was 15 years ago. Then 3 years ago I was diagnosed with a somewhat rare form of cancer called liposcarcoma. This is a cancer of the soft tissue. I went thru radiation treatments again, having problems from radiation burn that is still causing problems, but I am cancer free. I don't think I could have made it thru the second time without the support of the people I love and work with every day. Had they not stood behind me and held a fundraiser for me to pay for my co-pays for each treatment, I would not have been able to financially have my treatments that have saved my life. God Bless each and every one of them, especially my best friend, Joey, and the cancer society for helping to save my life.
