Smile Changing My Signature - Now 3 Years NED!!

Friday Dec. 18th marks my 3 year Cancerversary - 3 years since my mastectomy.

As many of you know, my BC was found in a very unusual way - went in for a breast reduction, came out with breast cancer. A complete shock, as my mammogram/ultrasound 3 months before were clear, showing NADA. I think my big dense breasts were hiding the 2 tumours, all docs say that reduction operation probably saved my life.

It's been quite the ride, and at this time I would like to thank all the members of this site for all their support, information shared, and most of all the friendship and good wishes throughout the past 3 years.

I am looking forward to sharing many more cancerversaries with the Her2support group.

Joe and Christine, thanks again for the wonderful work you do...

all the best
