My breast cancer journey

On September 18, 2023, I received the call that will forever be etched into my memory and change my life.  I was diagnosed with Stage 2 invasive ductal carcinoma in my right breast and 1 axilla lymph node at the age of 40 years old.  I started treatment in the I Spy clinical trial with 3 infusions, 12 infusions of Taxol chemo and now finishing 4 rounds of AC chemo.  I will undergo a double mastectomy with a oophorectomy surgery on June 10, 2024 followed by radiation treatment and endocrine therapy.
