The Heaven Can Wait Walk was Great!
Our walk today was a big success. There were over 4,000 people - which is good for a town of 85,000. The most emotional part for me was when everyone was asked to kneel while the survivors all stood. Of course I was very happy and proud to have my husband at my side (he even wore a pink cap). I also spoke with someone I…

waiting is the hardest part

I am a fighter and I am going to fight like I did last…

Anyone have answers (Foods and supplements that should or shouldn't be taken) ?
Hi, everyone, I'm getting confused by what I'm reading and hearing about food and useful supplements! The messages are very mixed: Soy is OK for BC...soy is NOT OK. CoQ10 is a great complementary supplement (NIH)...no it's actually dangerous (I found a paper published last year that said it actually causes cancer to…

Today is my final radiation to the brain, 14 total. My face is a swollen mess (steroids) and my sleep has been off the charts....so wired. After the rad I will see my oncologist.

Just got news that a good friend's endometrial biopsy contained serous cells. They also know an ovary is enlarged. She will have surgery (hysterectomy, BSO, and staging) on Friday.

Still dancin' with NED
Thank you ladies for the pink bus ride to the MO this morning. It was comforting to hear the rumble from the parking lot (and I don't mean the bus engine). Everything is good (what a relief). He's hoping that in a few years I'll be "considered" cured; but suggested that I try going back on the anastrozole. So I'm gonna be…
