Its been three years since Laurie was diagnosed and treated for breast cancer. Her prognosis/outlook is good - but she still worries. The fear is still with her. She still talks about that first month when she found her lump and going through pre-diagnosis. The uncertainty and the disbelief that it could really be happening to her.
Mom is doing really well - as you can see from the photo below she has grown a lot of her hair back and is not wearing a wig! She looks great and feels great (aside from general aches and pains etc). She still sees Dr. Porubcin and checks in every few weeks for a port flush and blood work.
Hopefully we will get through 2017 without even thinking about chemo treatments. That would be quite a blessing. Every day is a gift.

ReplyDeleteCongrats on your success with the blog, and I applaud all the advocacy work you're doing. I had a question about one of your older posts and was hoping we could chat quick. I can be reached at virgilnci(@)gmail(dot)com - I appreciate any of your time in advance
Thanks Virgil I will send you an email!
ReplyDeletePre-diagnosis was actually more than 4 months during which time I had 4 screenings and was told there was nothing of concern to see.
ReplyDeleteThere never were any lumps to find.
