Hi Girls
I was 33 had a baby of over a year and a daughter of 9 when I first got diagnosed with breast cancer. I have been clean for well 4 years now and helloooo it just popped up again, same breast same type of cancer (estrogen positive) Anyway I was on Tamoxifin and it did not stop it. I now have to still go for the scans to see if it has spread because it is on the side of right top breast on the wall of the breast pocket. I am numb and scared but positive that God will heal me I will survive

    God Bless you and your family.
    You have a positive attitude which is good. Hopefully it is just a local recurrence.
    Hugs

    Hugs Michel. Of course you're numb and scared as well as a few other things. I'm glad you have a positive attitude, that will help you go far. Please keep us posted.

    Michel...As you know, this is just the absolutely worst part of your journey...the not knowing and thinking the worst. Once your scans come back and you know what you're dealing with, you'll do just that....deal. It's amazing the strength we find that we never knew we had.

    You're in our prayers, girl. Hang in there.....

    Hi Michel,
    I've been thinking about you and hoping that you made out well at your Dr. appts. on Tues. & Wed.

    The not knowing what's next is the hardest. Once they have a treatment plan for you, it's time to kick some cancer butt!!!! There are so many options out there for us.

    Kim
