Congratulations on getting through everything the last 12 months has thrown at you. Your determination and terrific attitude have shone through in your posts on here.
I too remember Angelina's brave revelation as it was just 2 days before my mastectomy. It actually helped so much to have her go public about this and it has helped me to be very open about my own situation.
