5 years and counting
I can hardly believe it but it is now 5 years since my diagnosis of her2 breast cancer. In the first year I just wanted to get past chemo, radiation and herceptin. In the second year I felt I was holding my breath with each exam by my team of doctors. The third year I felt much more relaxed and that continued through the fourth year with even more mindful positveness that I beat this horrible disease. What a journey and it is far from over. Living and loving life as I never did before! Couldn't have done it without all of my supportive and caring her2 sisters. Hugs and kisses for that.
