I feel like a cancer fraud

Helen, I had a lumpectomy
Helen, I had a lumpectomy and am following that with chemo and radiation. Do you think I am a "cancer fraud" because I didn't need the mastectomy? No? Well i don't feel like you're a fraud for not needing chemo and radiation. So there you have it. We both have cancer and we both have different treatments. But it's still cancer. So stop worrying about what you didn't need and start focusing on what you're going to do with your life once your next treatment is completed. I was recently reminded by a wise woman, "Sometimes attitude is a choice!" Stay strong, Pitt0
