8 Years .... And I Missed It!

I just realized this afternoon that my 8 year anniversary from diagnosis was last Sunday, Nov 9th, and I completely missed it!!

After the mastectomy, 4 months of chemo, 5 weeks of radiation, agonizing over the loss of my hair (and more importantly my eyelashes!), reconstruction surgery, 5 years of AI's and now on tamoxifen, ongoing battles with mild lymphedema, I really never thought I would get to a time in my life that I would just let that day pass without a thought.

But I did. And I just want to encourage those of you not as far along on this journey that you will get here too. A time when it finally is not the daily worry that it once was. A time when life is a little bit closer to how it used to be.


Of course it could also be that I was too busy watching our Seahawks beat the Giants.
Go Hawks!!!!

Bless you all and keep the faith!
