Celebrating 10 Years Living with Cancer
Today I had my monthly Onoclogy. Its a signifcant day as its my 10 year anniversary of living with cancer. Hereunder is the cornerstone of my medical team; Dr. Mitchell Chipman, Victorian Breast & Oncology Care, East Melbourne, Janine Mount, Senior Oncologist Nurse, St. Vincents Hospital, East Melbourne and Dr. Claire Phillips, Neuro-oncology Radiology, Peter Mac. Because of them I still have a good quality of life. I always have hope and thus far my medical team has delivered the technology that I need to keep golng well. Raise my glass to my team. My life is literally indebted to you.

- NadiMemberJust wanted to congratulate and thank you Karen for sharing your story. I was devastated last year when I was diagnosed and thought the worst even though I had early breast cancer. It's from stories like yours that I now know there is hope if I should ever get secondary cancer in the future. I wish you all the very best for your future!Sign in to react to this post
