Hi everyone! Just wanted to share some excitement with you all!!!!! I made it one year from diagnosis! I was diagnosed at the age of 24 on April 16, 2001. This is such an accomplishment and I feel I have come so far! I have hair again, my reconstruction is started and I will finish my chemo in September! What a year this has been! You all have been such a good support and don't know what I would have done without you all! From the bottom of my heart, thank you all. You are all such wonderful women!

Carrie

    Hi Carrie!
    First, let me say CONGRATULATIONS! Second, let me say bless your heart! I thought I was young being dx at 29 ... but 24, wow! You must have the courage of a lion! If it gives you any inspiration to know, I am 33 now and living cancer free!! You keep up the great work and the great spirit! I'm sending many prayers your way, Angie (ludasuesnout@yahoo.copm)

    Congratulations Carrie!!!!!! You have been through so much and at such a young age!!! Keep up your spirits and good luck with your reconstruction. If you have any questions, feel free to email me. I completed my reconstruction last month (except for the tatoos). I am on the home stretch and it feels great!
    Best of luck!
