You can get a lot done by being at home! I was a stay-at-home mom for many years and just worked about 10 hours a week. Now I work a lot more but my kids are older.

It does get hard. Why did you have to quit your job? What kind of nurse are you? I'm glad you caught your cancer early. I did too and it makes such a huge difference! I still had to have chemo and radiation but the cancer wasn't in my lymph nodes an…

plastic surgery

Hello, I am a breast cancer survivior for 3 yrs now. I am still going thru reconstruction due to my first plastic surgeon missed me up!! But, I found a wonderful doctor and very caring staff that I would recommend to everyone in the US and even outside the US. If you want to know more about him just ask. I joined pink-link, because I wanted to talk to others that are going thru what I am. thanks for reading.

Watch Survivors Kick up Their Heels!!!

This is a video of an flash mob dance we organized at my hospital to celebrate survivorship. It was so inspiring to be there and I wanted to share it with all of you. The dance was a surprise that a group of survivors and caregivers planned and practiced, and lots of people who were at the event were really surprised when we just busted out dancing. Several women who danced are stage 4, and some are still in primary treatment. Enjoy!

Thanksgiving

It has been 7 1/2 months since I lost my Cuddels to breast cancer. This is the first without her in 22 years. I am feeling lonely and depressed. I will be spending thanksgiving with my children and grandchildren. This will help to cope but a very important person will not be there.

Just diagnosed 10/09

Just diagnosed with early stage DCIS in the right breast. Just had a lumpectomy yesterday. Incision not bad but feels like a lump above it where the wire was placed and that is sore. Is this common? Anyone else just starting out in treatment? Hoping to get the mammosite radiation for 5 days but dr says there may not be enough clearance from the area to the skin so may have to have the old 5 day a week for 5 week treatment. Hope not...mileage will kill me. Interested in speaking to others for inf… Continue
