Women & Breast Cancer

Hello Everyone,

Thank you for visiting my blog.

Cancer is the word that shakes us to our very core and makes us loose sleep at night. I am here to tell you that there is light at the end of the tunnel. We can take control of our lives so we can live life to the fullest.

I am a 43 years old African American woman. I decided to have both breast removed so I will not encounter breast cancer in the future. I had both of my breast reconstructed using donor tissue from my back.

If you would like like additional information or want to share your experiences please feel free to post them on this blog and I will get back to you. This blog is about sharing experience letting people know there are new technologies out there. Cancer does not have to be a death sentence.

I want to give back and share with others the way people shared with me. Let's live.
