When my best friend had a radical mastectomy 40 yrs. ago I remember her asking me,"Why me?"; I had no answer.
I was thankful it wasn't me and a little disappointed that I couldn't give her a viable answer. Four yrs. ago I was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer. I immediately called her and cried and asked, "Why Me?" to which she answered, "Why NOT you?"
I am 4 yrs. Cancer-free. My best friend had a second mastectomy this year, after 40 yrs. Cancer-free!! We continue to fight the good fight.
