5 years ago today I was in recovery and getting ready to start the craziest year of my life. I was diagnosed with breast cancer and had a mastectomy. That started a year of treatment. The scariest year of my life.
While my surgeon said he got it all my oncologist said your still doing 6 rounds of chemotherapy and a year long drug called hercepton. So I did.
This included every 3 week visits to Kaiser for my chemo and my hercepton. Every 3 months they had to scan my heart. At one point I became anemic and had to have iron infusions the next 3 treatments.
In the end all that matters is Im here. We lost our house and our business but I’m here. The big man had other plans for us and I think I’m finally starting to figure that out!
