RE: Re: cancer free for 6 yrs.

[Guest guest]

Thank you Margery for the welcome...............As I stated before, I am a 6 yr.

breast cancer survivor. Can I tell you a little bit about myself. One Saturday

morning in November, 6 yrs. ago I was watching TV with my 2 yr. old and the

woman on TV was looking in the mirror at herself as if she was doing a self-exam

and then I thought I would do it also and there it was in my left breast, a

lump, Of course I panic ed, my mother had passed in 1984 with ovarian cancer, so

I always thought cancer was a death sentence. I went to the doctor that

following week and they did a biopsy and sure enough it was cancer, thank God it

was between stage 0 and stage 1, I had a mastectomy and 4 rounds of chemo and

Tamoxifen for 5 yrs.. I had just left a bad marriage with my 2 yr. old daughter.

I have had a lot of problems from the chemo and I will tell you more about that

later, but, I'm here, the perfect man came into my life and we are married, i

didn't think a man would want me because of

my having one breast, but he said, a breast doesn't make me who Iam, it's the

inside that has shined on the outside, that made him fall in love with me. There

is life after breast cancer, I'm not saying it was easy, but thank God I'm here.

I hope that i haven't talked too much, trust me, I have more to tell you, but

this is enough right now. I haven't talked to no one about my feelings of how it

has effected me, so I might have to vent a lot. Thank god for this site. Love,

Betty

Welcome to the group <big smile>.

I had a mastectomy in May this year and I'm really happy about it - it's

what I wanted and the surgery went very well.

Many of the other ladies in this group have had the op too, and I'm sure we

will all try to answer any questions you ask.

Or you can just talk - we're here to listen, and we do understand.

Love,

Margery.

Betty you have found a wonderful man :-) My husband said the same the same

anniversary.

Nice story Betty...I found my boyfriend the same year I got my cancer 2002.

Found him on internet.. and he came to live with me Dec 2002. My mom never got

to meet him...she passed away Sept 2002...and he has been with me ever

since...He understands because his first wife passed away from liver disease...

Glad for you that you found someone that will love you for what you are...Some

of the people I know treat me different because of the disease expecially the

girls in the office where I used to work...They just did not understand what I

was going through... Take care and God be with you...

Hello Betsy this is a nice story, I put my profile on the Internet

before I got diagnosed with breast cancer but 2 weeks before my surgery I

finally met someone that was comparable and the chemistry was there, he was all

I wanted. the day we met after dinner, I told him that I had something to tell

him because I believe in being honest and give people choice to be with me or

not dealing with cancer. When I told him, he said that he will take off to be

in the hospital during the surgery, but I told him that I will prefer for him to

come visit me on 2ND day after my surgery, he also told me that he doesn't much

about breast cancer, I explained to him what I know about CA. The next day he

called and asked to meet before the surgery to get my business card so he can be

able to locate me in the hospital and my home address to come visit me at home,

but I didn't feel comfortable to give my personal information. I called him

after surgery to give him my room # which he

came to visit me in the hospital. After surgery, I didn't hear much from him

only when I call him, finally I sent him an e-mail that I will not contact him

anymore because it looks like he lost interest because of my condition, I gave

him my phone # again, I encouraged him to call me but I never heard from him. I

have a friend who has been there for me during this difficult time, but he is

not going to marry me or any other woman, but I would like to get married again.

Am I doing wrong by telling my dates about my condition? Any advice will be

appreciated. I am happy for you for being cancer free for 6 years and for

meeting a special person in your life. God bless you. God bless all women and

men fighting this battle, we will make it.

No you are not wrong for telling your dates that you have breast cancer. That

sorts the wimps from the real men in my opinion. Better to find out early before

you would get too involved with someone. You will find Mr Right someday. I will

keep you in my prayers.

Betty...I found my boyfriend the same year I got my cancer 2002.

Found him on internet.. and he came to live with me Dec 2002. My mom

never got to meet him...she passed away Sept 2002...and he has been

with me ever since...He understands because his first wife passed

away from liver disease... Glad for you that you found someone that

will love you for what you are...Some of the people I know treat me

different because of the disease expecially the girls in the office

where I used to work...They just did not understand what I was going

through... Take care and God be with you...

> Hello Betsy this is a nice story, I put my profile on the

Internet before I got diagnosed with breast cancer but 2 weeks before

my surgery I finally met someone that was comparable and the

chemistry was there, he was all I wanted. the day we met after

dinner, I told him that I had something to tell him because I believe

in being honest and give people choice to be with me or not dealing

with cancer. When I told him, he said that he will take off to be in

the hospital during the surgery, but I told him that I will prefer

for him to come visit me on 2ND day after my surgery, he also told me

that he doesn't much about breast cancer, I explained to him what I

know about CA. The next day he called and asked to meet before the

surgery to get my business card so he can be able to locate me in the

hospital and my home address to come visit me at home, but I didn't

feel comfortable to give my personal information. I called him after

surgery to give him my room # which he

> came to visit me in the hospital. After surgery, I didn't hear

much from him only when I call him, finally I sent him an e-mail that

I will not contact him anymore because it looks like he lost interest

because of my condition, I gave him my phone # again, I encouraged

him to call me but I never heard from him. I have a friend who has

been there for me during this difficult time, but he is not going to

marry me or any other woman, but I would like to get married again.
