Re: 11 Years bc, 10 Year with mets

Shaysmom,

Thank you for the inspiring post. I was really scared when I was diagnosed. I had just turned 31 and had a 7 month old son. I had no family history of breast cancer so I really had nobody to help me through it all. This site and the many women like you that I have met along the way have really helped to keep me going. My son is now almost 3 years old and I have brought a program called Live, Laugh, Learn to my home town by an organization called Rethink Breast Cancer (Canadian Charity that helps women under 45 dealing with breast cancer). This program has really helped many young women to not feel so isolated. I wish you many, many, many more years!

All the best,
Cat
