Here i am, 45 yrs old. I lost my sister to Leukemia a short time ago. That was one of the hardest things i thought that i would ever have to go through. During the time of watching her die, i underwent the struggle of 13 surgeries in 4 years, just so i could remain walking. Yep, you read it right...13! Now i am in the fight for my life! I was diagnosed three weeks ago with a rapid form of breast cancer that has envaded both of my breasts. I was taken in for surgery, to remove a portion of the cancer and will begin chemo treatment on Friday. Is it just me or am i just a target for bad things to happen??? My faith in the Lord is strong. It pisses me off when people tell me they know how i feel. NO THEY DON"T! "Give it to the Lord" they say. What am i, frickin 2?? I know what to do! I may lose both of my breasts and frankly, im not liking it what so ever! I may die, i may live. It is out of my hands. But what do i say to people who say stupid stuff when they really don't know what to say at all? Okay.... i feel better for venting. Thanks ladies.
Plain and simple that really sucks for what you and your family has had to endure. I have no faith in religion at all. I was brought up a catholic but I don't practice it now.I don't believe in anything that I can't see. No prayers from me just lot's of good vibes that you come out of this stronger then ever.



Have a super day:)....... Robin
I am truly sorry for all the hell you and your family have had to endure. I may not know what you are feeling or what you are thinking but I am an 8 yr breast cancer survivor. I was diagnosed with small cell breast cancer at age 19 and it has not been an easy fight but so far it has been a winable fight. If i may give you some advice go to Cancer Treatment Centers of America and do so very soon. They have the knowhow, the specialist, the doctor, and the mental health councolors needed to help you in your fight. I will keep you in my thoughts and will hope that you will find the strenght to fight .

I am so ashamed that I haven't been on here. and had not read this. No! most times people do not understand. But they at least show they do but adding their comments. To me, IMO, Having someone at least acknowledge that your going through something, is way better then not saying anything at all.
CairoMom, I do pray all has gone well for you. That any pain you have endured has been helped by medication. I hope When Gods plan for me, unwinds , I'll be as strong as you are now. Many hugs.
That whole thing is horrible. Only people who have been through this know what you're going through like my sil.She had to have both breasts removed. I have no faith in anything but human nature. "THE LORD" as you call him is doing a bang up job don't you agree??? Prayer also has such wonderful outcomes! Good luck!!!!!!!!!!!!
