Wellit was 3 years ago today I found out I had breast cancer.  I have to tell you, I feel such joy to be at the 3 year mark..... I see the onc in early November and have my mammogram  and I think all will be fine... even if it isn't, I know what to do. I honestly thought I would always feel as tired and cranky as I did during chemo and radiation, that my hair would never grow back and that I would never get my life back.  This is such a psychological journey more than a medical one.Well, life completely back and then some..... I feel great--- still on femara and lupron, but can see the end of the tunnel on that.... hair is back and, if I do say so myself, looks fabulous.  I never complain about my hair or breasts any more, never. I so remember the fear and the anxiety on Halloween in 2008. I could barely breathe-- and I had NO idea how to proceed.  I feel so grateful for all of those who walked through this with me and have tried very hard to help those who have come behind me.If you are just starting out, please know that things WILL get better.  I promise.hugs to all
