Introduction

I was diagnosed in August 2011 with triple negative breast cancer at 62 years of age. I had 2 lumpectomies followed by a mastectomy on my left breast when the margins were still not clear, and the removal of 2 lymph nodes. The size of the lump was 3mm. As it  was considered  early stage breast cancer I expected the lumpectomies would be successful,  and I would be cured!. So it was quite a shock to lose a breast and undergo chemo.

I am happy, in excellent health and enjoying life! There is always light at the end of the tunnel!
