Breast Cancer Survivor
ONE YEAR LATER!
It's one year and I am happy to say I am still here. One day at a time is all I can do at this point. My worries are always there. They don't go away. I am learning how to tame them. It's harder then it seems. I find that I enjoy life. I always thought I did, but realized I really didn't. Not to the full meaning. I do everything I want to do and have stopped saying I'll do it later. I don't say no and I don't put it off until tomorrow. Who knows what lies ahead but I cherish the biggest lesson I have learned -- LIVE EVERY MINUTE!!!
I Am A Breast Cancer Survivor!!
I originally started this website right after I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer in July 2010. I wanted to share my story with others and track my journey. As I reflect back, it's hard to believe where I am today compared to where I started. I had a long road ahead of me and a lot of treatment. The initial treatment part of the journey is now complete. I have had a bilateral mastectomy and 4 rounds of chemo. I have lost my hair and now wait for its safe return. I have met tons of new people and heard inspiring stories. Most importantly, I realized how many great family and friends I have as supporters.
Although my journey with Breast Cancer will never officially be complete, I am now ready to take that next step and live as a survivor. I plan to continue to write about my journey and can't wait to see what lies ahead as a Breast Cancer Survivor.
