When I had my hysterectomy in 2006 due to ovarian cancer I was placed on Estradiol, a hormone replacement and told there was a chance of breast cancer due to my family history. Never did I imagine it'd come true eight years later. I noticed some changes to my left brast and found a "new" lump. Rich, my boyfriend pushed me to make an appointment due to my fear coming true. In February I saw the doctor and he agreed he felt it then sent a Referral for a Mammogram and US. I had stomach surgery in February and healed up in April so I was occupied dealing with that health issue. So in May 2014 I finally went in for my Mamo and US. I received my results that "something" wasn't right. So then onto a core biopsy where the suregon asked how long ago my last Exercised biopsy was and I replied, "in 2007" and it was negative and I told that surgeon that he didnt get it all. I still felt a small ball deep inside my breast and he said I was imagining things. So here we are, I received my results from the biopsy as IDC estrogen positive/progestrogene positive and HER2 negative. Clinical stage 1 grade 3

When your told you have cancer and your a survior of cancer it isnt easy.  This day of diagnosis was June 20th and I still feel like its not happening. All the Doctors 

appointments, medical tests and now surgery for a bi-lateral masectomy July 15th with immediate reconstruction is coming up too fast.

I don't know what to expect as Im LIVING moment by moment it seems. Im happy and appreciate life as I always have. Its the chance of it being stolen is the scary part. I finally have all I could ever want. A house to call HOME, a new car, a loving man and daughter, amazing in-laws and a wonderful career. I will KICKCANCERIN THE FACE!!! It will NOT take control of my life.
