Posted by Bobeanie My suspicious mammo was June 2002, and I consider that my anniversary, so I am now nearly 4 years out. I didn't think I'd make it this far, I was convinced I would be gone in a year. Kind of irrational, not the prognosis for my stage, but the mind is a funny thing, eh? I thank Jesus and my husband for getting me through it all. I'm a better person for it but I would rather have improved myself via another vehicle! To all of you just starting this journey, please take heart! It will get better, day by day. The fear will subside and you'll realize that life is very precious and it's time to really live it to the fullest. I'm not saying that like "my time may be limited" but "I dodged a bullet" and I don't want to waste any more of my life not being absolutley happy. FYI, my diagnosis was stage 2A: 1.3cm tumor, 3 big positive nodes, er/pr -, her2 -, grade 3. Treatment 4 a/c, 4 taxotere, rads. May God bless you all, you are all in my heart!

At my last onc appt. I was tickled to be "graduated" to visits every 6 months instead of every 4! WOO-HOO!! Every milestone makes me very happy. With each one I can take another step away from the overwhelming fear that I felt when I first heard my diagnosis.
