A lady I met in church was Dx. at stage IV while nursing her second child. It was thought to be an infected milk duct, it didn't clear up with antibiotic and so went for biopsy and ended up with double mastectomy ( one being a radical and the other simple as a precaution )age 24 years old. Was given a very poor prognosis. She reached 20 years last year and got a "cure report" from the doctor. He told her he never expected to tell her this. He has followed her very closely for 20 years just knowing it would come back full blown. Has had NO RECURRANCE!! She went through a horrible time of chemo and radiation as that was 20 years ago and it was harsh. Does have some side effects from it all but over all she is still here and teaches full time in a christian school. Hope this is helpful. I don't think this is common but I really don't know. I keep thinking of her when I get down. Just had to share this with you all. We never know what God's plan is for each of us. Hugs, Sandy
