My journey started in November of 2023, after a routine mammogram. I was diagnosed with stage 1 breast CA. I went through several biopsies, MRIs, scans, physician consults to determine the best course of action, In March of 2024, I had a Lumpectomy with sentinel node biopsy. To the surprise of my surgeon, one cancerous lymphnode was found, that never showed up on any of my scans. It was removed, as well as the breast CA. Then, I went through 5 weeks of radiation. Now, I'm on medication therapy for 2-5 yrs. The meds have really taken a toll on my body. But, Im not a quitter, I continue to work as an RN through this journey. I'm also working with my oncologist to find the right dosage that will work for me. Every day is a new day. I'm grateful for the coworkers, family and friends who have stood by me through this journey and continue to support me.
