The letter came yesterday

In the summer of 2005 a mammogram result dictated I needed a needle biopsy in my right breast. What a scare. No history of cancer in my family going back 3 generations. The result.......benign. Ok. Sigh.

One month later I was in a traffic collision that totaled my car (young man chasing girl's car hit me midside). The airbags saved my life, but apparently injured my left breast, disturbing the cells and allowing the seeds of cancer to take over.

2006's mammogram had a result simliar to 2005. Back for a needle biopsy, only not so scary this time. WRONG. Surgery, radiation and chemo over several months blessed me with remission.

The letter came yesterday. God has blessed me with remission one more year. Breathing is easier today.
