Ponderings By A Breast Cancer Survivor!

It was on May, 2007 when I was first diagnosed with breast cancer. I can still vividly remember the trips to the doctors and the hospitals. I also remembered quite well the pain, agony and frustration on that year. The hurried decisions made without much thought! You thought you are great in decision making, but crumbles when it is your own self involved! Hence, I decided to share my story to the whole world with the hope that women in the same predicament will be able to read my book. The book, "My Journey With Breast Cancer," is an eye opening of what is involved when you have breast cancer! Your world crumbles and everything is beyond your grasp! You feel helpless with a big doom and gloom written all over your face! But lo and behold...you decide to fight!

A very strong woman! Although you are crumbling inside you still had that urge to fight! Where did you get the stamina to fight?? From God Almighty and with the help of my loving family! I thank God for my faith and for a close knit family! Although it was very hard most of the time to smile and laugh, God gave me the strength not to lose hope, hence my sense of humor was still intact and kept me going to beat the dreadful, horrible disease!

Although it is almost four years since I was first diagnosed, I am still kind of apprehensive since I heard so many people get it again and again! I am sooo thankful to God and I hope my cancer will be completely gone and will eternally be a thing of the past! I also hope and pray that my relatives and friends will be spared of this horrible disease!
