Re: Triple Negative
Dearest Jean,
I am so grateful for you. Thank you for letting me stay. I feel as though I need this group. Had all of my pre-op tests today. There have been some tender moments lately. I let my students' parents know my diagnosis through a letter they received on Tuesday. I simply told my students that I had to have surgery. I told the parents I would leave it up to them if they wanted their children to know. Yesterday I realized many were aware. I was particularly touched when one little girl came up at the end of the day and asked if she could give me a hug. Then she and her friend said they would wear pink today! The positives are there with this rotten disease.
I was thinking Jean that you said you had to go to bat for yourself five years ago when you were diagnosed Her2+. I feel as though triple negative might be similar to what early stage Her2+ was then. There seems to be very little info. and few treatments. How did you go about finding the help that saved you? I want to be aggressive and make sure this doesn't come back - the most dangerous part of triple negative it seems.
Thank you again!
Nance
