I hope she wins her battle with that awful disease, and this is your chance to speak with actions and not words.


Thank you! Her prognosis is really good, but since she didn't proceed with the mastectomy I just hope it doesn't come back. It would be tough to go through the surgery and radiation (she's not having chemo) only to have to turn around and repeat it again later. She's had so many scares over the years that I'm kind of surprised she didn't get the mastectomy, but I'm sure that's a very big personal decision to have to make.

So true, and I really hate being a burden on anyone else. That's something I really struggle with when I'm sick is trying not to feel worthless when I'm just laying around and can't get anything done!
