11 plus 2 for me!

I just realized that it's my cancerversary. Two years since taking Center Stage (4).

AND!!!

13 years since my initial diagnosis. WOW! 13 years that I sure did not expect. No matter what happens tomorrow, right now I really feel like a survivor woman.

I could not have done the last two years without my her2 board.

With gratitude and love,
Flori

Flori,

Thank you for posting. I needed to hear your news. I don't know why, but after I took the vaccine on Friday, I have been feeling a little blue. Maybe I need a little sunshine today to help with my mood.

You news definitely makes me feel better!

Flori, let's focus on this thread not the one you started today! You are a survivor and a fighter and an inspiration to us all.

I particularly am inspired by how you never let cancer stifle your spirit, and who you really are. Sure you get scared and frustrated but then you get mad and strong and stand up again.

I am so glad I know you.

Removal of tiny melanoma from upper left arm, plus sentinel lymph node biopsy in Feb. 2016. Guardant Health liquid biopsy in Feb. 2016 showed mutations in 4 subtypes of TP53. Repeat of Guardant Health biopsy in Jana. 2021 showed 3 TP53 mutations, BRCA1 mutation and CHEK2 mutation. Invitae genetic testing showed negative for all of these. Living with MBC since 2007.
