Hi - My name is Sue, had a mastectomy 3 years ago this past January. I have two girls, 28 & 25, two grandsons, one 12 and one 5. I just turned 50 in February. I have a boyfriend , Jim, and we have been together 7 years on March 13th. Since being diagnosed, I have started going camping with my family. My favorite part of camping is the early morning hours when it all quiet and I am awake. I sit by the fire counting the blessings in my life. I am very grateful to have all of you with whom I can share my thoughts and feelings. Your support means so much. Sue

Well my name is Ingrid and I am from sunny California. I am 37 years

old and I have two girls ages 4 and 8. I work as a secretary in a

hospital which is where I was diagnosed and treated for breast cancer.

So getting to my treatments was easy. My husband is 36 years old and

works as an electronics engineer. We are a Christian family and enjoy

family time together. My hobbies include scrapbooking, crocheting,

taking pictures, and latin dancing. All my family and friends would

tell you that I loooove to dance. I even danced while on chemo if you

can believe that! Now some back ground on my breast cancer. Last year

in April I found a lump in my left breast while taking a shower. I

thought it was nothing since there is no history of cancer in my

family. I let it go for a month. Then one day while sitting at my desk

I had this nagging feeling that I should have it checked so I called

my GYN doctor and got in to see her the next day. I didn't even tell

her where the lump was, she found it on her own. She referred me to

get my first mammogram the very next day which was a Friday. The

following Tuesday I got the call at work. THings happened fast after

that. I met with my oncologist, had test after test done to see if it

had spread. I prayed and prayed that it hadn't. God must have heard me

because all my tests came back clean. I had an approximately 2cm mass

on my left breast. The exact term in my report says Invasive Ductal

Carcinoma. When I went to pick up my films and read the report for the

first time, I freaked out at the word " invasive " . I thought this

monstor was invading my body and it was too late. After meeting with

my doctors I learned it was indeed an aggressive tumor but that it had

not spread to my lymph notes. My journey was beginning and to say

that I was scared is an understatement. For me having radiation and a

lumpectomy was a breeze. Chemo was tough but definitely do-able. It

tested my sanity and brought me to tears many times when I thought I

had had enough. But I stood strong and kept working throughout my

treatments and never went on disability. Today I am cancer free. After

the very first chemo treatment my docs could no longer feel the lump.

Midway through the treatment I had another mammogram and my doctor

said I had a " Phenomenal " response. Well I could go on and on but I

don't want this to turn into a book so I'll end it here. I just want

women to know that there is hope and to always remember the importance

of self-examination. I never practiced self examination but that day

out of the blue decided to do a quick check. I thank God everyday for

healing me and for showing how much He loves me by guiding my hand to

that very spot.

Hugs,

Ingrid

>Hi! My name is Carol and I am from s Ferry Ohio. I have

been married to the same guy for almost 29 years, and we have three

great kids, 2 girls and 1 boy. Lynnetta is 27, Angie, 25 and Zach 20.

Currently, we also have a foreign exchange student, , living

with us from Colombia. I believe things happen for a reason and

came to live with us 1 month before I was diagnosed with BC. All of my

natural children are grown and moved out of the house so I think God

brought to us to fill that " void " . undersands my

condition and I truly believe it has helped me through this because I

didn't want to alarm him when I found out about the BC. I probably put

up a front, as I was scared to death, but I also think it helped me.

I found my lump myself, luckily it was only 1.1 cm. The biopsy

supposedly removed all of the cancer as the margins were clear and the

7 lymph nodes they removed were absent of cancer as well....whew! I am

having chemo, however, as the type of tumor was fast growing, ER and

PR neg, and HER2 neg. My regimine is called FEC (5FU, epirubicin, and

cytoxin) I just had my 4th treatment out of 6 total yesterday. My

worst side effects are tiredness, and occasional mouth sore. Oh and of

course hair loss. I began losing my hair 12 days after my first

treatment. Funny thing, it still hasn't all fallen out, but I am

pretty bald nonetheless! I also get a Neulasta shot the day after my

treatment and the side effects from it have been worse than the chemo

effects. As for work, I work at a private college bookstore as the

assistant manager, so fortunately I mostly have a desk job so this

allows me to work throughout my treatments except for a few days when

I couldn't even drive (due to pain from the Neulasta shot).I signed on

to the Frappers map and sadly see no one lives very close to

me, 'cause I'd love to meet up with a few of you! Feel free to email

me personally also, and thanks for reading my bio!

Hi, my name is Barb. I've been married to my husband, Tom for almost 34 years. We have 2 kids, boy, 30 this month and a girl, 34 this October, 2 grandkids, 6 & 1.5, boy & girl.... & my kitty, Gizmo. I own a home-based business, graphic design... for 15 years. Tom & I enjoy traveling in our RV, just got a newer one last summer and are anxious to get it on the road. Looks like it will be local trips this summer, if I'm up to it. Other than that, I like to read and take care of my 6 year old grandson. Both my son and grandson live with us. He has some special needs so I spend a lot of time running him to therapy, doctor appointments, and school activities.

B/C came as a complete surprise like it probably did for all of you. I'm glad I found this group. It has really helped me keep informed, here how everyone else is doing and look forward to the day I can say I'm a survivor. Now I just need to get this show on the road and treatment started. Barb

OK

I'm Janet age 69, widowed, lost my favorite husband five years ago.

What a peach he was, will love him always. I was married 50 years

ago to ....who wasn't a peach, but had two kids with him. Had

a three year old at the time, Jane, 52, Dave 48, and Ken 45. Jane

has two sons married, with one greatgrandchild Tommy, Dave married

six years ago to a wonderful Vietnamese girl he met through refugees

who lived with him for three years, no children so far. Ken has

three children, 16, Hayley 13, and Spencer 11 years. Love

my grandchildren and kids the most. One grandson is getting his

doctorate at Caltech next year. He is 27 and married.

I have two cats, sisters, I adopted from the Alternative Humane

Society six years ago......right after my husband had to go into a

Care Center because of Alzheimer's dementia. Smokey is what they

call black smoke, black semilonghaired with an undercoat of pure

grey. Duchess is shorter haired and all black. She is the smarty

and the dominant one.

I like to read, paint watercolors, play piano, sing in choir, have

lunch with friends. I visit with at least two friends every day by

phone, and sometimes 4-5 friends. Just added a whole bunch of

breast cancer friends.

I have been retired for 11 years from banking. It was not my bag.

I loved the customers, but the wages were poor, then they started

merging and so on. I love art and literature, have started

reading " Team of Rivals " by Doris Kearns Goodwin, about Pres Lincoln

and his cabinet. It is so good I don't want to finish it. Better

quit as you probably don't want to read my book.

Chemo today and I have a headache and backache. Luckily, I get six

free massages and last week she found four points I could rub to get

rid of some pain. seven more days of cytoxan, and I'm done with my

second months of chemo.

Please don't think I'm ignoring the request to "get to know everyone..."

I will get to it soon I promise...I think it's great ~ kudos to the person who thought of it.

I'm back on Tamoxifen - postponed surgery to remove ovaries; seems I've missed a period in February, and am experiencing major "hot flashes" - my gynecologist recommended we get my estrogen levels checked again - HEY - maybe it's a miracle and I won't need the surgery!

My oncologist said yesterday he's putting me back on the Tamoxifen till we see what's up - don't want that Estrogen partying in my body!

Happy Saturday to you all...I think you're ALL the best,

I'm Lee Anne. I am single. I was married and divorced 3 times. Possible

marriage #4 ended when 2 weeks after we were engaged, I met his girlfriend.

Needless to say, I kept the ring which was custom made just for me. I have

2 sons, 27 and 20. My oldest, is married to and they have three

beautiful children. Cody, 8, Sierra, 6, and Hunter is 2 months. My

youngest son is Tony and is going to be a daddy any minute now. He's living

with a gal named Windy and basically that's all I know about her. I've met

her twice in 2 years.

My hobbies are crocheting, knitting, and reading. I'm also a Red Hatter

which adds a bit of " glamour " to the chemo situation. I wear a rhinestone

studded baseball cap to my treatments. I meant to wear long rhinestone

earrings yesterday but forgot them.

I have my wonderful dog Banjo, a 2 year old cockapoo, who has helped me thru

the surgery and my down times. He is so loving and gentle with me, besides

being very soft. I collect turtles and have three live aquatics that I

enjoy watching.

How did your treatment go yesterday? As I remember, it was your first. Hope

you are feeling okay. Love those critters. Although we only have cats, its

amazing to me how understanding and perceptive they can be. Just when you

are at your lowest, here comes this little face... Don't know what I'd do

without my Gizmo.

nne,

I am so lucky that I have only one bad day with chemo. I worked

those pressure points last night and it works wonders. So today I

am pain free. Not doing any lifting either. I did find out

yesterday that my onc. did not want me taking any more Tylenol

because of the numbers on my liver, and that's two weeks after I had

the cat scan. Nothing showed up on the catscan. No lumps in the

abdomen area and chest area, Whoopee!!! But no one told me not to

take Tylenol and I had taken some the night before.

I am so sick of all this hair coming out in my food, my pillow,

etc. I chose a wig at the Cancer Center here and will take it with

me on Monday when I get the Mohawk. Take Picture and quickly shave

it all off.

I forgot to mention that I found out last Thanksgiving eve that I

had cancer and scheduled surgery ASAP, Dec. 20th. The lumpectomy

went fine although it is invasive ductal carcinoma. So I am cancer

free as far as I know.

Janet,

I don't seem to be getting all of the posts. If you haven't already shared about the pressure points would you please explain it a little more? It might help some of the other ladies.

Can't wait to see your pictures. Continued prayers.

Hugs
