A Little History

A little history ... July 2000 I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I was given the full-meal deal, surgery, chemo, radiation, and hormone therapy. Four years later in 2004, I had a re-occurrence where I had surgery and a change in medication. Fast forward to 2008 ... a spot shows up on the annual mammogram which turns out to be metastatic breast cancer. It is still too difficult to discuss the details. I'm hoping that sharing my experience will help me cope with the reality of my illness.
