Love & Thanks
I want to thank all the girls who have been right here for me ...when I first started this journey I did what I always do RESEARCH..this site was just a GOOGLE away .
At first my initial diagnosis was DCIS ...I met Beesie there who has a wealth of knowledge if that is your diagnosis...she welcomed me and informed me....but I was not to stay there ...my diagnosis kept moving..I started to think "these girls are going to think I'm nutz!!!"so when it changed at one point I did not post..Final path brought me 'home'...
The first girls to respond and sorry cant remember the order...Debi,Kim, Kerry Mac...thank you..
Although many others came to my aid and I thank you too!!
I frantically searched for someone with stats similar to mine ..YATCOMW was my hope and I read and reread her threads...thank you!! I now know stats are just that stats but she gave me HOPE in my darkest hour.
The love that is sent through this site has touched me to the very core...I was chatting with someone one day at the treatment center and their comment was breast cancer survivors are a special group unlike any other cancer group they seem to bond...have to agree!!
Ok so its off to my last rads girls...for the last time ...Say a prayer.
MUCH LOVE!!!...&thanks
