My cousin found out a month ago she has breast cancer and is getting a bilateral mastectomy Monday (26) Please keep her in your prayers.
You got it!

My thoughts are with all the women here dealing with breast cancer, as a survivor of 36 years, i still get very nervous when check-up time comes around. Good luck to you all, keep on supporting each other.

Wow, seems like only yesterday. It's 3 years for me. Now we stand as examples for others who come after us, that they will come out the other side.
Last week, my dental hygienist, a young woman, told me she was triple negative, and just beginning her treatment. I was glad I could tell her that her hair will grow back, and she'll make it through this difficult time.
My advise is always to throw everything they've got at it, and then go about your life as best you can.

Me too! I believe the phrase is "Attitude is everything!"

Well done, Song.

My sister has been cancer free now for 1.5 years. Reading your cancer free milestones gives me hope that my sister might reach those too.

Have you heard/seen this? Get a tissue first. You'll most likely need it.

Great song, we all need support in this, spare a thought for the women who don't have that and there are a lot of them,lets remember them and say a prayer for them and wish them a good recovery.
