Sassy,

When I was around 29, I had a few lumps (in my breast), one of which had a cord-like thing that went into my armpit and had another "ball" or lump attached to it. It felt just like a lymph node. Anyways, they removed it and it was all one big mess- fibrocystic stuff and an adenoma. All benign. I actually had another lump removed about a year later. Same thing. My prayers will be with her family.

Love, Kelly
