Hi, if it is not God keeping me alive I wish to thank who else it could be. I have preminitions, first time thought I should check my breast and was thinking to myself nothing serious ever happens to me, then a lump, after a miss diagnoses then 13 weeks later it was obvious there was something wrong with me. After surgery and treatment I thought to myself again, they always check my neck when I see the onc, I didn't have an appointment for weeks and there it was a lump in my neck. First of many and many tears. Then I was due for reconstruction surgery and had a lump in my neck this time revealed enlarged thyroid so no surgery, thyroid gave me heart failure I should have died but I didn't, my family was told, I wasn't. Lump in neck was still there after treating thyroid and tests revealed BC lump deep in neck past this one which would not have shown until too late. Treated this same obvious lump with radiation when I started getting sharp pains in head so had more radiation, original lump did not show on CT of ultra sound but you could feel it and see it, relieving onc wanted to know why I wanted an MRI then she said that there was nothing more they could do for me, that was the wrong answer 2 years later and I am still here, many things have just happened and doors opened with thoughts in my head so if not God it has to be a spirit that I have known. The weirdest thing of all is I started my first job at 15 and finished up after many years of working and family at 44 to end up across the road from this job, ending my work career, so I went full circle in my life, definately weird. I could write a book on my experiences, so there is definatley some one or thing writing my destiny, making me aware of what is happening to me so I can be treated befor it is too late.

My prayers are with you and everyone else on this site.

I have also had trouble with my country Australia being 10 years behind the rest of the world when it comes to treatment but I have been lucky I have a brilliant and great onc woring with me.

Love & Hugs Lyn
