    Amy, thanks so much for having the courage and generosity to share your story here. It must be hard, so soon after your mother's death, to be writing about her. And though difficult, perhaps healing, as well. We'll all benefit by your perspective - the story of a daughter living through her mother's breast cancer. It's a story that hasn't been told here before, yet one that I know so many women have lived. You speak for them, I know, as well as yourelf.

     

    Welcome, and I eagerly look forward to reading your posts here. PJH

    It's good to hear from you, Amy..! I have been excited today about a new treatment for breast cancer that I just heard about. It is being developed at the Royal Free Hospital by a man named Mo Keshtgar. The clinical tests will be held THIS YEAR..and it really sounds VERY promising. So I thought you might like to google it for more info.

    We are all hunman, Amy..and NO ONE is immune to the things that we can ALL fall victim to...but we just hafta keep on punchin'..and somehow, we make it....My health problems are different from yours..but i do have a few...I try not to give up...so i don't, but I have my days when...well....it ain't easy being HUMAN. Next time around I want to be born into a more advanced world..that has more effective solutions for all of us..! Until then, I guess i just hafta meke do... Hugs..Miaa

    Thanks for the posting!  I actually am not a breast cancer patient myself, but certainly am always interested in new treatments that are out there.  Stay positive and optimistic - it really makes a difference!

    Thanks PJ!  I'm very excited about this opportunity - it's strange but sharing her story has been amazingly easy and uplifting for me!
