syly i was diagnosed with a 4cm triple neg aggressive high grade3 cancer and brac1 pos in 2007 and had partial mastectomy and 15 lymph-nodes removed then aggressive adjuvent chemo and radiation... i'd had a hysterectomy when 33 but they had left an ovary in so i wouldn't go into early menopause and i have since had this also removed. i am ten years cancer free this year so far so good . i take nothing for granted and i am ever vidulant and body aware. have my yearly mammograms and ultrasounds and biopsies if required . i deceided not to have a double mastectomy ( my choice) but my surgeon said if i got another cancer he would remove then then if need be , but depends if it did come back where it was i guess but as i said i am ten years and for me every year is special and every day is a bonus . i grab life with both hands and live to the fullest of my capabillities. and sometimes go a little beyond them but i am living for so many of my friends as well . i hope things go as well for you too . xxfranp
