Why I Relay
Twenty four years ago, I was diagnosed with stage 1 breast cancer. Found in a routine mammogram.
A lumpectormy, followed by chemo (yes, I lost my hair) and radiation followed. Now, what I thought was unthinkable has happened. I found a lump in my breast taking a shower. It is stage 4, metastasized breast cancer! It is inoperable and has spread. It is in my spine, my bones, my lungs and my lymph nodes. Now I have cancer in my eye! And aggravated by the bone cancer, I have suffered a broken right leg in October and most recently, a broken left leg in March near my hip, leading to partial hip replacement. Fourth of July I suffered a second break in my left lef. Waiting for it to heal naturally. Keep your fingers crossed. I am learning to walk again. I am being treated with prescription drugs that hopefully will help maintain my quality of life. Drugs not possible maybe even ten years ago. Drugs developed during research maybe funded by you through the American Cancer Society.
