In early 2008 one of my sisters found a lump in her breast and was diagnosed with breast cancer, it was Grade 3 and her lymph nodes were affected. She had chemotherapy followed by a mastectomy and radiotherapy. Her recovery has been amazing and she's just had breast reconstruction.
Unbelievably our youngest sister had a mammogram early 2009 and she also had breast cancer, hers was Grade 2. She had chemotherapy followed by a lumpectomy. Unfortunately she had to have a 2nd op a month later because 2 of her lymph nodes were affected.
We know of so many women affected by breast cancer and the majority are very positive.
