I finished radiation TODAY! I'm done with treatment other than figuring out if I'll be taking Tamoxifen or Arimidex. It is so hard to believe that back in July, what I was told lie ahead of me, that I have actually done it all. My tech asked me today how my family was planning to celebrate and I told him by me taking my boys out to dinner :) It's all good! They deserve a celebration as much as I do because mentally, they've been through hell too!

You have all been so supportive and so helpful in getting me through this and I thank you with all my heart! I'd like to save a place at the table for each of you but I'm not sure they'll have a table for 154! So you'll all have a place in my heart instead... forever & ever!

With all my love and deep appreciation, Mar
