I've received two very good pieces of good news since Friday.
1. I am negative for the BRC1 and BRC2 gene, reducing my chance of getting breast cancer again.
2. The two additional biopsies I had on Friday, thought painful, came back benign.
I am so extremely lucky to have such a positive, hopeful diagnosis. I still can't believe how early I found it! Thanks to everyone who sent me good thoughts and prayers! I can now see the light at the end of the tunnel. My surgery is scheduled for February 26th, but might be pushed back until mid March.
Honey, I am so happy that you have created this Blog! You are an inspiration to me and hopefully this blog will inspire women (and men) to be proactive about their own health. I <3 you!
ReplyDeleteErica! Thank you so much for starting this. I wonder about you everyday, and this is a good way for me to keep up without you having to say the same thing to 20 people a day. I am so proud of your strength, and I know you are going to come out of this even stronger. I love you!
