    i found this site...due to i

    i found this site...due to i used to say I had cancer/ never thought of myself as a survior-until a friends with skin cancer/ surgery (no treatments) said she was a survivor. I then found this site to see if in fact I was-since NO chemo-i had surgery and radiation.

     

    I AM...yipppeee

     

     

    I wish I had found this site long ago , while i was going through all to the tests, surgeries (2 lumpecomties and hystercomty due to tamoxifin)

    Three years ago next week I

    Three years ago next week I had my surgery, a double mastectomy.  That April I began chemo, which ended mid-July that year.  That August I started rads and tamoxifen.

    People who know me, whether at work (school), around town, or at church will say that did they not know that I have dealt with bc, they would have no idea.  For that I am thankful.

    I will say that my life has changed in a lot of ways -- many of them good.

    Congrats, Disney.  (Stay warm, BTW)
