Angelisa,
reading your posts reminded me of how i felt 9 months ago. the breast book by susan love is a great book. it is worth getting it is like a bible to survivors. i have a 6 yr old grandaughter who lives with me and she is very positive like your son. i have been thru chemo and now in radiaton.I had a mascectomy in january 2010, jsut now getting into radiation. chemo was not as bad as I expected. i think our attitude helps so much... and you are in ohio!! i am from ohio but live in ky . where in ohio are you I have alot of family there. we may be able to meet someday. you are in my prayers. there is power in prayer. You will be fine and I thank God fro this board. i dont always post but i read alot of the new posts and I learn alot from all the experienced folks on here. this is an awesome site and so very helpful and uplifting. you will be so glad you found it. let me know where you are in ohio. my email is candlegranny2001@yahoo.com take care!
