Enjoying Life

I was diagnosed 5 years ago with IDC and DCIS, Stage 1, Grade 2, Hormone positive and HER2 negative. Had a Lumpectomy and Radiation Treatment. In fact this was the day of my last treatment exactly 5 years ago. The reason I remember is because its my son's Birthday, he is 23 today. I am a former Mammography Tech and I found it very beneficial to understand my Pathology Reports. I work the Helpline at SHARE and love to give back. Enjoying every minute I have here on this wonderful earth!!!
