I was 35 years old when I was diagnosed with Stage III breast cancer, a single mother of 2 young children. I had a bilateral mastectomy, 34 nodes removed (19 were positive) followed by 6 treatments of chemo, a year worth of herceptin and 30 treatments of radiation.
I just walked in my 2nd Susan G. Komen Race For The Cure. I'm still here, I'm cancer free and living my life in a positive, fulfilling way.
I didn't have to fight cancer. Cancer had to fight me. I won.
