99 Year Old Breast Cancer Survivor

Nice to read survivor stories

My mum had breast cancer 27 years ago ... Had one radical mastectomy with lymph node removal and at her 6 month checkup it was found in the other side so the process was repeated.... She is still going strong... She is also pleased things have advanced so much that I have more choices, and there is greater support. Her experience in part contributed to my decision to have a bilateral mastectomy....

This is what I need to hear! All too often you hear the horror stories of recurrence etc but we do need to keep in mind that this is not always the case! 

I wish they made these types of cases more widely publicised. It's not false hope, just hope! 

Always good to hear of long term survivors. Thanks for sharing this story, all the best, great smile you have,
