My grandmother has breast cancer and 

this website is helping me get through 

this experience. Genetically I have a 

very good chance of also getting cancer 

and I think this website will help me 

when/if I ever get cancer. 



THANKS PAUL!

my mom recently passed away after

complications from breast cancer... she

had it in 2006, went through chemo,

mastechtomy, and radiation... it came

back in her chest, bones, spine and

liver. She passed away 2 weeks ago.  I

just feel so alone and sad and I just

don't know what to do.  I feel like I

should be the responsible one b/c I am

the older sister of 2 girls.  I am 25

but I feel like a little kid. UGH. this

just SUCKS!!!!

I really miss her every day. all the

time. i can't wait to talk to people.

thanks.

She didn't want to die. I was there in

the last moments... she was struggling.

Such a fighter. She didn't want to give

in... I could tell.  She knew we were

there, and even though she couldn't see

and her pulse was unreadable by the

hospice nurse, I knew she wanted to live

longer... that made it so much harder.

About a year and a half ago my mom was diagnosed with breast cancer. At the same time my friends mom had just finished her treatment and it was encouraging to see her get through it. It gave me hope that my mom would be ok and as well as she was before.
