After a few rough months of chemo, followed by a partial mastectomy, I found out I had achieved PCR! I have IDC ++- and was not expecting this. All of the hard stuff was so worth it. SO thankful for my amazing Med Onc! (And he's a cutie, so there's that too.) 😉
In February 2024, I was diagnosed with Stage 1 negative 3 breast cancer. I had my first mammogram on January 14, 2025, after having 4 rounds of chemo and 21 rounds of radiation. I’m happy to say, I’m now in remission. GOD HAS THIS!
In 2022 I was diagnosed with early Stage 1 breast cancer. I had a lumpectomy and one week of radiation. I went every 6 months for my mammograms. My last 6 month mammogram this past December, I was told that my next mammogram would be in 1 year instead of 6 months. That was the best Christmas present ever.
Started my journey in 2023 and finished my treatments April 2024. Had chemo and 2 surgeries. The last surgery was a mastectomy. Took 6 months for me to look at my body. I’m proud now for having courage to save my life and move forward. Learned many lessons. Most important thing I learned was the way people care. Strangers, distant friends, and the medical team. Loving my life now at 72 years young.
I was diagnosed back in April 2024. It’s been a rollercoaster ride since then. I just had my six month check up and all looks great. Doctor feels that double mastectomy got everything. Next check up is in another six months. At that point I will be a one year survivor!
I just finished my radiation treatments! Now I hope I can put this all behind me and have a great 2025!
