This March 7 marks the beginning of my journey with breast cancer. I had a mamogram after having pain in my right breast. They scheduled the mamogram for my birthday 5 years ago. After a mamogram and ultrasound, I had a biopsy one week later. I got the results one week after that and that began my odessy with a Stage 3b aggressive cancer. Now on my birthday each year since I re-set the clock and have begun my life anew. This November marks my 5 year anniversary of being cancer free, a day I never thought I'd see after my diagnosis. I will be celebrating my "5th" birthday this year!
