Auntie Em has Cancer

After meeting with Dr. Grange for my biopsy results my biggest fear is coming true.  I do have breast cancer and although she is not able to give me a stage of cancer she already knows I am going to have chemotherapy.  I am all for getting rid of the cancer and doing what ever it takes but I am scared to death of chemotherapy.  I am afraid of how it is going to make me feel and losing my hair.  I know it is just hair but unless I get a wig (which I plan on doing) I can't imagine myself without hair.  It is such a big part of me and every time I think of losing my hair I burst in to tears.  You would think a possibility of losing my life would be the bigger deal...right?  It is a big deal but I don't plan on going any where without a fight first! =)

I am going to the hospital on Monday for CT scans to see if there is any other cancer in my body or anything wrong with my bones.  Dr. Grange finds it suspicious that I could have breast cancer so early in my life (32 years old today as I write this) if there wasn't something else at the root of the problem.  To rule it out I need to have a lot of tests done to get my complete diagnosis and stage of cancer.  So for now I am praying that the only thing wrong is my breast cancer and every other inch of my body is healthy.

Thank you to my family and friends for your support during this difficult time in my life.  I plan on fighting this disease until it is gone and your support will give me the strength to do this!
