My mom has been diagnosed with Breast Cancer. My mom is my best friend...we have been through everything together...and we'll go through this together also. I am so sad that she has to go through this but I have faith in God and know that he will bring her through this...He will heal her from this illness and give her an awesome testimony. My mom goes for an annual mammogram, and last year something showed on the results but the doctors didnt think it was cancer so they just figured they would keep an eye on it and check it at her next visit...well, here we are a year later and she is in stage 3b cancer, she is undergoing chemo right now and then she will have a bilateral mastectomy in November followed by 6 weeks of radiation and 6 months of medication administered through a port in her chest. After all that they will continue to check her to verify that the cancer has not spread anywhere else in her body (which it wont) then they will tell her "Pearl, we have been checking you and we dont see that the cancer has come back so you are now cancer free"...we will celebrate and give thanks to the Lord (which we do anyway) and that will be it...but in the meantime we go through the steps, one step and day at a time.
