Yesterday was my two years since diagnosis of stage three breast cancer!! wasnt as emotional as i thought.
Maybe thats a sign im learning to accept it more and moving on.

Congrats, Melp!!! You should do something to celebrate -- a spa day, pedicure, etc!

Great news and happy so many woman are survivors. Today is my third chemo day, 6 total . Then 6 more months of Herceptin and 5 years of a pill. Trying to go back to work part time. Sitting home all day not easy. So glad when I get thru chemo end of Sept hopefully and hair hopefully starts to grow back. This journey surely is life changing but made me realize not to be afraid but to take it one day at a time and get it done
-
thats the way to look at it yep. take one day at a time. hope your chemo is going ok
-
Yay Melp! Congrats to you! Here's hoping those years just keep on racking up! Happy dancing for you!
Love n hugs. Chrissy

Melp,

My 2 year anniversary was. July 28.... -
yay hoo! Good for you! -
Wow - my two year "cancerversary" was September 15th - it kind of flew by.
As soon as I was dx'd, I joined BCO. Here, I found information, support, encouragement, and yes - laughter.
I told everyone I wanted this whole BC experience to be a bump in the road in my rear-view mirror.
Today, finally, I'm at a place where that bump is getting smaller and smaller in my world, and I'm not obsessively looking in the rear-view mirror, just forward.
Many, many thanks to the BCO mods who keep this place going, as well as to all the awesome BCO members who kept me sane over the past two years! xoxo
