But everyday, research moves on ahead to bring better and more efficient treatment, upping chances of survival, and there's at least that.<br />In the past, a diagnosis of cancer, even breast cancer, was a ticket to death.

I have a lot of women who are very near and dear to me and I pray that they manage to beat the 1 in 9 odds and live long, healthy, happy lives.<br />Congratulations on making it through such a horribly traumatic experience; I hope that you continue to not only survive, but thrive!J.S.
