    Hi Jennifer...

    I too was diagnosed as Stage III and 7 positive lymph nodes. I had surgery in Dec 2007 and 6 rounds of chemo and 35 radiation treatments. It is so hard to believe that it has been 2 1/2 years since my diagnosis. I did not have any history of breast cancer in my immediate family and was only 43 years old. It surprised me too and I thought I was doing all the right things. I got my mamograms, did self-breast exams, and went to my GYN yearly, but it snuck in on me. I want to let you know that there is hope and keep looking up. I will be praying for you daily.

    Take care of yourself and stay positive!

    God Bless!
