He was 3 years old when I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Now, he is 11. Today, he graduated from fifth grade. Thank you, remission, for the chance to witness this child’s milestone.

I’m in the middle of chemo and have 2 girls, ages 3 and 4. I just did a internet search looking for reassurance that I’ll be around for them. Thanks for blogging.

I was pretty sure I would not be around for my boys, ages 3 and 18 months at my diagnosis. But here I am, eight years later. Joey is 11, and Danny is 9. Hang in there, and be well

I am glad you stumbled up my blog
I am doing well, thanks. It’s been eight years since cancer came my way, and I’m hoping it continues to stay away!
