wonderful news!

k, last fall my Mom went in for her yearly mammogram and they found something. She went in for two partial mastectomies to discover what type of breast cancer Mom had. Thursday before Christmas, we received the news that she had ductal carcinoma, which if you have to have breast cancer, this one is the best to have. Because they caught it so early she didn’t need chemo, only radiation. And with that, she’s lucky that she didn’t have a rib fracture (which sometimes happens with radiation treatment). She was told she had a 90% survival rate in the next 20 years.

She just went in for a follow up mammogram, and there’s no more cancer! Omg, I’m so happy to hear this news ^_^. No more radiation, no more surgery.
