Meant to post this Saturday but the site just wouldn't load.  July 13th my Mom hit the 12 year mark from when she had her mastectomy.  She actually had 2 different cancers! She is now 80 years old and going strong.  When I went thru my bout with BC she was my model of how you get thru it with grace and dignity.

    Thanks for the hope

    Hi there, I am new to this. Looking for some hope, about two years out from a double M and August marks two years since chemo was over. Some days are harder now than when I was going through treatment. Again, here looking for hope and connection, wondering if that is true for others?  Love hearing about Mom's 12 year anniversary, gives me hope.
