Re: You know you're a BC survivor when...

Denise,
So glad you healing so well. You sound so strong and upbeat. I celebrated my 1 year cancerversary on Oct. 5th. I picked that day since that is the day the cancer was officially removed. It was only 5 days after be diagnosed so it wasn't a big difference in date. My mast. was Oct 26th and since they found no cancer then I decided to use the lumpectomy date. My last herceptin is Nov 21st. Getting it a little early due to the holiday. Ready for it to be over but also getting alittle nervous already. Are your drains out yet? Stay strong my friend and keep us laughing with all your silly posts. Take care and god bless.
