@genetteg23 these photos are painful to look at. I’m finding that many people, including myself before now don’t know how much a woman needs to go through with any breast cancer diagnosis. It’s wonderful to know that there’s a group of strong, beautiful women all praying for one another. And thank you for posting the pictures. I would encourage more of us to do that because it is helpful to see what different stages look like and different ways surgery can be done well or messed up.

@jjjw thank you so much for your interaction. I started this mission off on the trajectory of me venting and complaining about something that I should be more appreciative of, and the fact that I’m alive. In that regard, I am absolutely astounded/humbled and beyond grateful and appreciative.
Tthe fact that I am a walking testimony to His abilities. I have had an amazing life. It has been full of trials and tribulations that I have always persevered through and with every ounce of Assistance that I am blessed to receive made it to the next set of roadblocks there to hurdle over..
I used to ask God why. why is this happening when I’m as smart as I am or why is this happening when I don’t deserve it and it’s unnecessary I don’t ask those questions anymore. I live with the understanding that every complication that life throws in my path is an opportunity to have a conversation with somebody who without me going through what I have wouldn’t be able to experience, and I would gladly do it all over again if I meant, I would be able to have this conversation with you. You are the reason I fight. YOU are the reason I live… you didn’t have to take the time to look outside of yourself to show compassion to a person that you don’t even know, and then to have the empathy and desire to comfort me when I’m sure there are 100 things you could be paying attention to in your own life that you probably wish just one person would notice and say that you’re doing an amazing job!!! life is Lucky and blessed that you exist because without beautiful people like you, this world would be devoid of love because just by the way you care about me, you stopped me in my negative trajectory and smacked me with a hug and made my day happy and positive, thank you so much for being you. Because without realizing it, it was what I absolutely needed desperately to make it through my day.
