Breast Cancer Sucks

I was diagnosed with breast cancer in March, 2008. Mastectomy on May 29, 2008.  Very lucky, they say, if you got to get "it", you got the best kind.  Okay, that's weird, because #1-Getting Cancer of any kind is not a good thing and #2- being mutilated is just what I love having done to me. NOT!!  Well, I guess if you consider that I did not have to have chemo or radiation, I am "lucky".  In my opinion, "lucky" would have been not getting "it" at all.  I happened to have liked my boobs the way they were.  Here I am 2 1/2 years later and still going through reconstruction on the Lucky Boob. 

Now here's the Lucky part:  I have a wonderful medical team; I have a wonderful and supportive significant other-Peter; I have a wonderful little sister-Brenda-who is my fiercest defender; I have 2 wonderful sons and their families and I have wonderful and supportive friends.  To Them I'd like to say I Love You, Thank You and I hope 2011 will be the best year ever.  Love, Roxanne
P.S.  I'm also the lucky to be owned by the Q!  He wishes everyone a Merry Winter Holiday and a Happy New Year.
