i realized the other day that by the 1st anniversary of my mastectomy I will be done with chemo, done with surgery–my rebuilding will be in two stages but the second one will be done in sept or oct…and almost done with herceptin(that will end late nov/early december–which means all this will have happened in only 1/46 of my life. That made me feel better–of course I still have to be on tamoxifin but that will be only 5/51 of my life when it is all done. Really not a lot a 10th of my life on tamoxifin—Out of the life I have had and the life I plan to have it really isn’t much time at all. It seems to be a huge amount of time when you are going through it because it overshadows everything.
As a result of this moment in time I have new friendships, new understanding, new compassion and new plans. New drive to finish what I start as well.
Happy Easter everyone–time to renew and be reborn!
