Discovery-
On January 4,2021 I got in a car accident and totaled my vehicle (RIP Ruby). The
following week, I went to urgent care because I was still having bad 
aches and pains. They told me I had whiplash, and I was prescribed
some muscle relaxers. The next day, I was about to take a shower, when
I noticed a lump in my left breast. Immediately, I went to urgent
care. The doctor felt the lump, but assumed it was a welt or bruise
caused from the car accident. As a precaution, she scheduled an ultrasound and a mammogram for the next week on January 20th.

During the testing on January 20th, the doctors were inconclusive on what the lump was on my breast, so they decided to do a biopsy. During the
ultrasound-led biopsy, they inspected my lymph nodes in my left armpit, as they were swollen. The doctor did a biopsy of the mass on my left breast and of my inflamed lymph nodes in my left armpit. The results, I was told, would take a day.


On January 22, 2021 I got a call diagnosing me with Invasive Ductal Carcinoma (breast cancer). The next few hours went by as a blur. Floods of texts and calls from family and friends wishing their concerns and condolences. Endless amounts of tears. Eventually, with sarcasm and humor, we all pulled ourselves together.

Humor and sarcasm is exactly how I plan to turn this horrible situation, into a bearable one. 
I'm doing as good as a 22-year-old gal with boob cancer can get. 
I appreciate your well wishes and will keep everyone updated as the process continues. DJ and Megan will most likely post my journal updates for me as I apparently have quite the busy schedule.
