    This is wonderful, Paula! Thank you for posting this news. I'm nearly recovered from a dbl mastectomy, and heard it is triple negative grade 3, and will have chemo and radiation next. 

    I'm normally not an anxious person, normally want to know the worst case scenario and then go from there. But I haven't found any sense of control or reassurance from reading about triple neg BC! 

    So hearing your news is like a little ray of sunshine, just for me.

    Yep, you can get bogged down in all the bad stuff written about triple neg, however I have stared it down twice and there is every reason you can survive this. I tried really hard to not read about it. I just got on with the treatment. It wasn't always easy, espescially doing it twice, however here I am 5 years on. I wish you all the best with your treatment. Just remember one foot in front of the other, one day at a time. 

    Hugs

    Well done Paula,

    Always great to hear of long time survival. Great to here of another Triple Negative survivor - we need to get the numbers up - I have met some lovely ladies who are 15 or 20 years or more post BC but not met any long term Triple Negative.  I hope they are out there.
