National Breast Cancer Foundation, Inc.

Since having my bilateral (no reconstruction) on Feb. 26th, I have gone from worry and fear to the feeling of relief....went to have my three drains removed on March 7th and was given the wonderful news that pathology report came back clear... 0/13 nodes, breasts benign. I was cancer free! I can now begin my new life! Even though I am still very sore from surgery, I feel that a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. Radiation will begin the 14th of April, so journey is not over yet; however, by my calculations I should be finished the week before Memorial Day weekend.....what a way to start off the summer!!! A big thank you to my surgeon and her staff and also to my oncologist...who I feel saved my life!!! The center I went to had such a wonderful staff and oncology nurses who were very compassionate and caring. To them, my friends and family and all my bc sisters that have helped me in so many ways.....I THANK YOU!!!! God Bless each and every one of you!
