THANKS!!!

I am certain it was 4 on 12/09. Mine was December 2011 for the surgery...diagnosis was November 2011!!!

I think what you are counting is different than what I am counting. I count from Dec. 9.2011 to Dec 9, 2015! I think you were counting 2011, 2012,2013,2014,2015..lol...Mine was the last month of the year 2011.....

Anyway, it is all good!!!

I was probably still in the chemo fog when you first got diagnosed!

Well, while I was gone from here for about 1.5 years I spent about 9 months of that navigating breast cancer. Went through diagnosis, bilateral mastectomy, chemo, and radiation. I finished treatment on December 18th. I start hormone blockers sometime in the next week and should be on that for 10 years. Cheers, trail blazers. Health and healing to us all!

Hi, easygoingfemme. I'm sorry to hear that this dreaded disease struck you. Breast cancer treatment is a long road. I am glad you came to this thread and hope that you stick around. Keep us updated.

I wish all of you healing and good outcomes and better health now and in the years to come.

Thanks, everyone. Hopes for you all to have a healthy cancer free path ahead as well! I'm grateful I went into this in otherwise very good health, and very grateful to be on the other side of the chemo/surgery part. This year challenged me in so many ways. Now forming "the new normal" and putting one foot in front of the other.

What an amazing and positive attitude you have!
