thank you so much. i was so confused about that. My doctor said it also says situ. but how can it be if its also invasive? anyway, i go to oncology on Tuesday for my first appt. My sister is dying of breast cancer; third bout went to lung and brain. she is just being made comfortable now, her 3 sons are with her and her partner and 4 of her siblings, all on the way to be by her side. i have to stay here in California because my son needs me while he recovers from a bad motorcycle accident. it is all so much. i can see how hard my sister's dying is for us, so I will fight to live.
thank you again for reaching out.

I am so sorry to hear all you & your family are going through. Right now mine is stage 1, they are verifying insurance, I will go to radiology for a tracker, be set up for surgery where they will also inject dye to check my lymph nodes. Then I will be set up for radiation and take meds for 5 yrs due to ER positive. Just keep fighting as long as you can. I have a daughter & granddaughter, so I also plan to have genetic testing for them. Hopefully that is the right thing to do. I lost my dad to kidney cancer when I was 26, but I try to look at what a wonderful dad I had. It’s hard when you can’t be there like you want to, but hopefully you can call or text your sister. The worst thing about disease is what you see your family or loved ones go through. While it doesn’t take the pain away, it does help to talk to friends & family. My thoughts & prayers are with you, your son, your sister and your families.
