Breast Cancer
A Bit Saddened
I have to admit, I am a bit saddened that there is so little activity in this group - especially with it being October - Breast Cancer Awareness Month....
*****My thoughts and prayers to the survivors, the fighters, and the women and men who have left us..............

Update: Sorry I failed to mention...

OK, today I had my first official mammogram and I wonder what all the fuss is about. It was simple and took only 10 minutes once I was topless. And it was absolutely painless.Is this weird or not?
Before my sister was diagnosed with Breast Cancer my dad's youngest sister died of Breast Cancer. She died one week before my sister's regularly schedule pap and mammo. My sister found out she had breast cancer two weeks after my aunt died.How do I help my sister?
My sister was diagnosed with Stage 2 Invasive Ductile Breast Cancer approximately two weeks ago (it seems like a blur so I cannot remember the exact date she called up and she she had just found out). She just found out she has Triple Negative Breast Cancer, which means a long course of chemotherapy with treatments of radiation. What I need to know is how do I help (or organize/resolve) the practical day to day and monthly issues that a homeowner and head of household has to deal with?Mammograms

This article struck me because my maternal grandmother had a double mastectomy. I also have a stepmother who had a lumpectomy, chemo and radiation. From Newsweek: The Deepest Cut The author of a new memoir talks about her decision to have her breasts removed to lower her cancer risk, and her desire to be a mother.My Mother and Breast Cancer
In August 2007, my mom was diagnosed with lobular carcinoma in the left breast. First, she had a biopsy, which confirmed the cancer. Shortly after that, she had the lymph nodes removed, which was about 30% of the breast.Top Brands
