In the past month I have been in contact with so many women who have inspired me, strengthened me and supported me as I find my way through the process of living life with cancer. While I get to spend the next 4-6 months killing this monster, so many of them have spent far longer. My six weeks of chemo is nothing compared to their 6 months or worse yet 2 years!
I have a support system - many of them do not!
I have decent insurance - many of them do not!
I have found this monster early and he has been contained - for them, the story is much different.
So as I sit here today, I realize that I am one of the lucky ones. I have a cancer that can be cured.
