[jag]

we-meaning my mom and all of our family was shocked today ....we just found out that the doctor that is treating my moms breast cancer has come down with breast cancer her-self...yes-the doctor is human as we all are it is just kind of shocking news....a news paper in our area has done a story and called it cancer doctor gets cancer ....in the story the doctor states she did all the right things exercise-diet-mammograms..the doctor said that the mammograms-ultra sound all showed nothing....but she felt something firm in her breast and had a mri that confirmed the cancer...the doctor now is beginning chemo-with surgery and radiation to follow...the dr.said and i quote---cancer sucks....but i now know the emotional as well as physical stress that my patients feel and i hope this will make me a better doctor...we pray for her....thanks all of you for listening....it just makes me think....
