THanks for the birthday greetings posted yesterday--I did have a great birthday. After being diagnosed with BC on my 36th birthday, it is great to be here celebrating three years later--NED. Now, thanks to surgery, chemo, radiation and 52 weeks of Herceptin (clinical trial) I am doing fine and I am so looking forward to turning 40. It's funny how a cancer diagnosis can really make you appreciate turning older. My only lingering problem is I've gotten so good at living in the moment that I have a hard time making any plans for the future (saving for retirement, leasing a car for 5 years, etc.). I still don't buy clothes out of season for fear of tempting fate...Anyone else find a way to snap out of this? I am happy in the present but afraid to make plans/set goals for the future...thanks for any input!--Hugs to all, Audrey
