One Day back in May of 2005, I was diagnoised with Breast Cancer. Them were the hardest words to tell my Husband and Family!! On June 16 2005, I had a 6 hr. surgery, to have a 5cm. tumor taken out, plus 28 limp noids, because 18 were cancerous.. I had a Mastectomy, and reconstuctive surgery, to my Left Breast. The Doctor did a TranFlap, to my Belly, to construct the Breast, So 4 days later I came home from the Hospital, for the long journey, of Chemo, and Radiation treatments..And Lots of Love and Prayer, to recover from this Deadly Thing that was inside of me !! It's been 3 yrs. now, and I'm doing better, can't do as much as I used to, with my left arm, as I had to even have therapy on it, so I could put it above my head, After surgery, I could,nt raise it,but maybe a quarter of the way..During all My Chemo Treatments, My Daughter Tamara, was with me for everything, because she knew I hated needles, They even gave me pills to take the night before, so I'd be so relaxed lol.. She always made the time go by quickly, buy making me laugh, over her jokes, or we'd play games, to pass the time, I Do Not Wish This On Any-One!!! And for all that have been thru this, and survived, I say Hail Yeah!!! Lets Kick this In the Butt Together!! So our Daughters, and Grand daughters never have to go thru this!! I was taking Tamoxifin,For 2 yrs. But now My Oncologist, has me on Arimidex, for the next 3 yrs. These are Pills we have to take to make sure, the Cancer does'nt come back.. My hair has come back, but Im still waiting on my lashes and eyebrows Lol.. Their being slow.. So if there is anyone who is or has gone thru this, I'd like to talk about it anytime, It sure makes Life more rewarding, than ever, there's alot of good times , and not so good times, and it really does help to beable to talk to someone, when your going thru all of this.. I had a 2 Chemo Angels, that sent me cards, letters, and gifts, thru it all, and I recieved something in the mail, almost every day, which really helps!! They were my therapy, as was my children, to get thru all of this.. God Bless all of us, who have ever gone thru this.. Amen
