Laurie’s Story

Site created on August 20, 2021

Welcome to my CaringBridge website. We are using it to keep family and friends updated as I undergo surgery and treatment for the in situ and invasive breast cancer diagnosed on July 13, 2021.  Having survived Paget's Disease of the Nipple and in situ breast cancer in 2000, I have faith that God will give me strength, courage and the ability to survive this as well.  I am so blessed, as I go on this journey, to have loving and supportive family and friends all over the world.  I appreciate your support and words of hope and encouragement. Together we will beat this monster!

Sorry to keep you waiting!
All that anesthesia did a number on me!
Just wanted you to know the surgery didn’t have the outcome we wanted and I decided to go flat. But I recovering well and will be my updated version of my self soon! 
Thank you for the prayers and wishes and love,
Laurie
