Re: Positive stories, please come out of the woods

I'd love to share my positive story too. With all the sad news we do need to encourage one another on as our hearts grieve for those we lost and love.

I was diagnosed in 2005 with stage 2B and 1 positive node. I was 45 years old. I just celebrated my 50th birthday and am fast approaching my 5 year cancerversary. I am healthier and happier than ever before. Life is good and life goes on.

How I wish I could wave a magic one and make all our sisters well.....but sadly, we can't. We can only live (each of us) one day at a time and take them as they come. I don't know what my tomorrow holds but for today I am here so I will grab ahold of each day and live it to the fullest.

God Bless you and may Peace rest in your heart...

Mary Jo
