Hi everyone, just wanted to take a few minutes to post. I am so sorry to hear about all of those that having to fight this fight again. MamaG, Chenhart. I know that is one of all of our biggest fears. I really had no idea just how much those words spoken to me on November 24, 2009 would change my life forever. "It's Cancer"

This year has been a blurr for me. Being Dx with BC, 2 surgeries, chemo, radiation, my Father passing the day after Father's Day, seperation from my husband who is somewhat back now, but I have no idea where we are going. I know he will never support me emotionally and so much has happened I dont know if I can go through a divorce on top of all that has happened. My eye's were sure opened and my heart broken. When I needed him most, he bailed on me emotionally, I found out most of it the week of my father's death.

WOW!!!! I have been reading the board and always think about my breast friends.LOL! I dont post much because this past year it just seemed one tragedy after another. My heart breaks for Lesley's family, though I am certain she is Heaven where my Father is, no more pain, no more suffering, no more worry, just perfect peace, and perfect love. I have been out of Chemo now for almost 6 months. I am done with radiation and now on Tomoxofin. I am scheduled for my first Mamo on November 1st. For any newbies or those going through treatment, keep positive, rely on the Lord. I have done really well, my hair is comming back (though not fast enough for me) I still look like a guy! LOL. It's coming in thicker and wavy and about the same color. I am working out doing Hip Hop Abs which is really working for me. My best childhood friend came back into my life about 5 months ago and we spend alot of time together. She is truly a blessing. I'm at the front desk covering for someone during lunch. I wish so much I had more time to post more and I will.
Until then, thanks to all of you for your words of encouragement, your prayers, and I plan to stay on this board for the rest of my life no matter what life brings. I want to be a source of support to others as they have been to me. FYI, I was stage 1, her2+ Er+ PR+, had a lumpectomy, my cocktail was carboplatin, Taxotere, hreceptin which I am still on. If anyone has any questions (realizing we are all different), I will be happy to offer anything I have experienced or what helped me. Hope to post soon. Gotta go back to my own desk.

Love you all,
RROGERS34
