Leah I am very sorry to hear about this diagnosis. I hope and pray that it was caught early and that there are no long term issues.

You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Best of wishes Leah...

Hi, Leah. I'm new here but I feel like I know you from reading your posts. I'm on a Relay For Life Team in PA (American Cancer Society). We are working for a cure! I have friends and co-workers who have been on your jouney. Hang in there. You will be in my thoughts as I walk at the Relay this month. Take care!

Hi Leah,
I know I haven't been on here in a long time with any comments or responses however I do visit and read posts maybe once a week. I treasured your advice you gave me during my rough times and it helped lead me to a very "under controled" lifestyle with food choices. I just wanted to log in and say that I am and will be praying for all good things to help you through this. I personally went through a double mastectomy with a dear friend of mine and she is a tropper and never felt better.....so I know you can get through yours.

Thanks again for ALL the great advice you gave me in my time..............everyone here will be with you!!!!!

I have also done Relay For Life… many times :)
Thanks to all of you. When I feel up to getting back on line, I will update you on my progress. It looks like I might have to take hormone repressing drugs for years to come. Not so happy about that. I wonder if taking them will do something to my MC.

I am thankful for my struggle because without it I wouldn't have stumbled across my strength.

What are you willing to let go of so you can live the life you know you deserve?
