I am a nurse,recording artist and a breast cancer survivor

In August of 08 my yellow Lab started some strange behavior he kept hitting me in the chest with his nose, he had never done that before and he was 11 yrs old. I took it as annoying and wasn't paying attention until one day he just got fed up with me not paying attention to what he was trying to tell me and he slammed his nose right into what I found out later was a tumor. It hurt so bad I investigated, diagnosed with breast cancer and since aug of 08 my life never the same. Ive had bilateral mastectomies, with reconstruction TRAM, chemo,I lost all my beautiful hair. Ironically enough I was a chemo nurse and have always been a singer soI now sing for cancer awareness I am working with Susan G Komen for the Cure to raise awareness for early detection if I can save one life and hope to help raise money also . I am alive my dog saved my life but I couldn't save his he passed away the week I was well enough to return to work. He stuck by me while I was ill and when he knew I was ok he left. Saddest moment in my life he died in my lap. If you like to know more you can google me on my space MicheleAnnn/SRGT ROCK I also sing for our military my son was in Iraq. MicheleAnn Breast Cancer survivor, and proud mother of an American soldier.
