On June 12th I went to the doctor for a lump I found in my breast, on June 13th I was having a Biopsy, on June 18th I was told I had breast cancer two months after turning 46 and on one of my BFF’s birthday. June 21st I was in the surgeon’s office discussing my options. Surgery was scheduled for July 3rd, but due to insurance issues it was rescheduled to July 17th. I had a lumpectomy and they found cancer cells in my lymph nodes as well but they were confident that all were removed. The cancer was fast moving and had grown in just that little time. I have the greatest team of doctors, nurses, surgeons anyone in the world could ask for. I started Chemo Aug 21st; I have two more left and then off to radiation for 6 weeks. I have been able to make this journey with the support of my faith, family, BFF’s and my motorcycle/social club. Walking on and in faith knowing that this too shall pass and fighting like a girl I will win this battle.
