I have had a very tough week. I have been diagnosed with breast cancer. We are still in the staging phase although the testing that I have had shows some positive signs. It is very slow growing and signs point to it being responsive to hormone suppression therapy. I learned on Friday that I'm a clinical stage 1, which is the best place that I can be with this diagnosis. Of course, it could change once pathology has the chance to do their thing after surgery. It has been quite a ride so far. I found the concerning part myself during a self exam. Please, please, please do your self-exams and encourage the women in your life to do theirs because it literally could have just saved my life.
I'm thinking of starting a blog about my journey. I'm also creating a cancer fighting playlist. If you have any suggestions, please let me know. Cancer has chosen the wrong girl!
