Hi Marie,
I don't feel "qualified" to talk to you about DCIS although I do have a friend who was diagnosed with it almost 1 year ago. She had a mastectomy because there were other areas of DCIS in the breast. She did not need chemo because the cancer wasn't invasive (lymph nodes negative too) nor radiation.
Basically wanted to reply though to offer my encouragement, send a hug and to tell you my prayers have been said for your mom, you and Ed this day.
Love,
Mary Jo
