I Support Breast Cancer Awareness and Finding a Cure

I had a mastectomy 5 weeks ago.

Microsoft has promised to find a cure within 10 years,they have assembled top scientists and computer experts to map cancer cells so they can genetically engineer them to revert to healthy cells. They also said they would spend whatever it takes.

Best part is I had a gene. It is a new gene they are looking for in testing and my insurance paid for it. It is called chek 2. I am BRCA inconclusive. My plastic surgeon said I was his first.

My mother had breast cancer twice. The first time she went through chemo and radiation. (26 years ago). Her sister suffered so many time I lost count. She did not make it. 3 out of 4 sisters had breast cancer.

It is a little overwhelming in ways. I couldn't stop crying when I heard I had a high risk but time let me know what to do. I know I am lucky and need to appreciate my good fortune to have turned the tables. I was a high risk and now I am a very low risk. It is still hard to do. I had my last "fill" today. I will give those interested more details. We all choose.

I took one path. I accept others decisions.

Thank you:-)

I can never find the right words for this kind of thing. I don't know if they'll find a cure in our life time, but I'm glad you are still here with us. 💞☮🎗

@spkfrly: Yes, I'm due for my mammogram now. I always go and get that done. I have friends that have faced breast cancer and gone through what you are going through also. I pray for a cure in the near future! 👼
