Re: You know you're a BC survivor when...

How about these 2,
You know your a breast cancer survivor when you wake up at 3 in the morning and your side is soaked because your drainage tube had a blow out.
You know your a breast cancer survivor when your night stand looks like a pharmacy.

I love all the ones posted before this. And I love so many have such a good sense of humor about all this. It really helps to laugh.
