Thank God it was still the same diagnosis with free margins. She now will undergo radiation for one month. Please, to everybody out there, don't forget to have a mammogram every year starting at 40 years of age. I will schedule mine very soon. Never want to go through this again so view my diagnosis as a chance to make major changes in my diet and lifestyle.
Recovery is a fulltime job.
Thank you for your web site. My mom was diagnosed with breast cancer right before Christmas, and had her masectomy right before Christmas. She just had her post-op consulation today. She starts her chemotherapy and radiation on Monday. I'm happy to find a place to connect with others who know what this is all like.
