My journey started in july of 07 when I felt a lump under my left arm.. The lump was so hard to find, I had to guide the drs fingers to show her.. I had a lumpectomy and the results showed breast cancer, the dr said it had been growing for over 3 years, I was 31 yrs old.. I decided to have a double masectomy.. During surgery, the dr took 11 lymph nodes to test and 10 came back positive.. I started chemo and did that with radiation.. During radiation, I had a rash come up on my chest and belly.. After trying over the counter stuff, the dr done a biopsy and it came back positive for cancer which means it had spread to my skin.. So I had to start chemo all over again.. That was in 08.. Its 2010 and im still fighting.. Im currently on my 2nd trial drug cause I found out that I was triple negative as well.. I just started this chemo and the first one has kicked my butt.. I know its been a hard long battle but God has held my hand through it all and He continues to do so everyday.. He is the reason im still here and im grateful.. Im living for my wonderful husband who has supported me through this rollercoaster and my two beautiful children who I just adore..
