On July 31, 2011 I got the call. Not one I had been looking forward to getting....but one I was anticipating.
I learned on that day that I had breast cancer. Talk about being blindsided! I've since learned that we ARE NOT in control of our lives, just our destiny. This can make, or break me, and I've decided to choose the high road and only let this make me a better person.
I had surgery on Tuesday, August 23, 2011. It ended up being more intense than I had anticipated. The tumor was 2.1 centimeters, and they took the lymphnodes under my arm pit, finding out later that only one had been affected. Hallelujah!
I continue to heal from this, and look forward to a brighter future with my family.
I still don't know what all the treatments entail, and I'm not gonna lie, I'm not looking forward to them at all.
Yesterday on the way home from Orem, a song came on the radio that I think I'll use as my theme song. It's called, "If you're goin' thru Hell"......keep on going. Don't slow down, if you're scared don't show it, you might get out before the devil even knows your there.".........That's the plan, get in, and get out of this as fast as I can, and just move forward with my life. I've got a long bucket list, I can't quit now!
