Honeybear

27    stage I - found myself two months after having a benign lump removed 2cm away from this lump

31    stage I -pushed insurance company to preapprove a breast MRI since mammogram reports always said ...."women under 40, dense breasts...." and what not - got the breast MRI and sure enough!

32    stage IV - mets to spine, ribs, pelvis-major back pain, thought I was going insane

I turn 35 a week from tomorrow and happy to be likely to be there
