My story begins.....
I wanted to create this website to keep everyone updated on my journey through my battle with breast cancer.October 30, 2018, I went to my annual mammogram appointment at Wake Radiology. I was called back to go in on November 20, to have a diagnostic mammogram and ultrasound. After being tested for 2 hours, the Radiologist came back in and told me that I needed to have some biopsies done. Biopsies were done November 29, and on December 3rd, my life was changed forever.....I was diagnosed with Invasive Ductal Carcinoma. As the week progressed, I went through many emotions and started to re-evaluate my life. I am sure that this is a normal process for someone who has just been told they have cancer, however, the more I thought about it the more I remembered...I have never been "normal." :)I am scheduled for surgery on December 28th and will begin chemo around January 14, 2019. I will keep up with this website as much as I can through this journey and plan to communicate here instead of on social media. This is not a private website so feel free to share the link with anyone who knows me and would like to keep up with my progress. :) Everyone is asking me and my family "what do you need?" If you are reading this....you have already given us what we need the most right now - your time, your thoughts and prayers. Prayers are everything. In some way, shape or form, you have come into mine and/or my family's lives somewhere along our journey- thank you. This is and will be difficult...but somehow, through the Grace of God, I just know that in the end of the rough days ahead this too will turn out to be a blessing. :)
