What does it take?

My oldest friend has breast cancer. I’ve tried to describe it in other ways: a lump in her breast…a scare…a…but it’s breast cancer. Stage One, but breast cancer all the same. From when she first discovered a lump over the weekend, she’s had a painful biopsy, the terrible wait for the results, an appointment made for a CAT scan next week, and then surgery. The surgeons will decide then whether they have to remove her breast, and the probability is great that they will.

She’s not yet 43, and she has 3 children. Her mother died of breast cancer, and she’s been very good about her screenings. And she has breast cancer.

Happy Mother’s Day

It’s Mother’s Day today and I’ll be taking my family out for a celebration over dinner to honor that special woman in my life. I love my mother, she’s a wonderful person who always puts others before herself. The smart cookie has been a fantastic role model to me and my younger sisters because Mom always, always lives by example.

Contrary to what people may assume, I come from a very humble family and Mom’s really worked very hard. She used to be a nurse, and I think she used to hope that one of her 3 girls would be a medical professional one day… but I don’t think that’s gonna happen. LOL. However, health is still tremendously important. So that’s why I feel there’s no better day than today to talk about this women related issue…
