I was diagnosed with left breast cancer May 2007 and a week later I had a Lumpectomy with a Sentinel Node Procedure and five days later I needed another Lumpectomy as there were residuals of cancer. Three weeks later I had the port inserted to begin Chemotherapy for which I had six sessions and after Radiation provided through a catheter that was inserted on my left breast. Radiation was for only for five days, twice a day. Ever since, I have been on remission and all I can say it wasn't easy but with the help of my family, my doctors and my co-workers who took care of me and were there for me at all times, made my life much easier. I had my mammograms performed on a yearly basis and thanks to this it was caught on time and my advise to everyone to do their mammogram on a yearly basis; I myself am here because of it.
