Hi Cindy1209- So very glad to hear from you- I shall soon be 75!! Where have the years gone? I also had metastatic breast cancer in 2018. I only hand to have radiation for 6 weeks. (also had the whole top of breast removed) I have been very faithful at seeing my DR yearly for health exam- He currently retired- (darn) I have a new Dr- not quite sure about him- Only seen him 3 times- He is the person that realized I had a problem- My red & white blood cell are both elevated - I will be seeing the hematologist 4/14- It will be the same Dr that did my breast cancer treatment. I was very please with the outcome- so I have lots of faith I'm in the right hands. We have been under a lot of stress the last 2 yrs Our son was in a car accident and now is a quadriplegic- We spend all day & nights taking care of him. we do have a helper every morning- showers, dressing, exercises, plus--- I am not complaining, just tired- I hope my energy can build up again- Not use to asking for help- Do not know what will happen to him if I don't survive this-
Getting ahead of our needs- One day at a time- will cross that bridge when it comes. I am just so pleased to have people to correspond with.
/Congratulations for the new baby- How wonderful. We have 4 children- 10 grandchildren, 9 great grandchildren- Busy family--- Love them all.
