woo hoo!
Congratulations StephN!
I agree on the role model part. Definitely inspiring me. I'm learning so much from you and the other amazing people here. I want you you to know your contributions to this site are helpful to me. I've only been on this journey a few months and it's so good to have company, although of course I wish no one had to be in this club.
I finished chemo last month and just had a breast MRI yesterday. I'll get the results Thursday. I plan to have great news to share then, too. An ultrasound in November showed "almost" no tumor left, so I'm expecting a very clear MRI, and very simple surgery next week, and radiation next month. I'd love some feedback once I get more info.
Cheers to you!!!
Celeste
