Pink IS my Signature Color

Breast Cancer month and I feel ok, sometimes it's hard because of the pain in my body but I keep pushing through (of course with pain meds). I checked out great with my mammogram appointment which gave me a huge relief. I still can't believe that this has happened to me, I guess acceptance is something that I am still trying to resolve. A friend of mine gave me a book to read of her story. She did not suffer from breast cancer but of pain. She told of how she felt dealing with all of the trials and tribulations that she went to. I could totally see myself through her eyes, she accepted it and yet I have not. I tell myself everyday that its going to be a good day and I can do this. I just have to convince myself....and I will! https://www.facebook.com/PinkIsMySignatureColor

I'm clean! Two years ago I sat in this very same office waiting for my results. I can't tell you the nervousness I felt waiting for these results today . Flashes of two years came back to remind me how I felt how I had to make that first phone call to Tim let him know that I had cancer. Today I celebrate I celebrate 2 years of being cancer free thank you Dr Mally

2 Years Cancer Free

I can't believe that it's been 2 years when I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. The best word I can explain it as a Blur. Everything happened so fast, diagnosed,  bilateral surgery, chemo, radiation,  reconstruction,  recovery all in this order. I have been so incredibly blessed to have my family, friends, husband and God walking me through this difficult journey.  It wasn't easy and she'd alot of tears but most importantly,  I found that my life has changed.  I see thing differently and don't take thing too seriously as before. I'm living my life one day at a time and on my terms. Cancer will NOT define me nor take away my joy of life. I have pledged the rest of my life in spreading the word and being an advocate to help others in learning and dealing with Breast Cancer. Thank you God for my second chance at LIFE!
