Just wanted to say hi to all my friends on this board that have been so helpful to me. I found a lump in my breast around middle of February. Had a core biopsy Feb 26 and cancer was found. Mar 25th had a right masectomy. Am five days post op-doing fine. Do not have a full pathology report yet, but I do know that it is very aggressive. Will be doing chemo in afew weeks. Wishing you all the best.

TomatoJuice-I am praying for you. You have been through alot , and now you have alot of healing to do. I have always admired your focus on natural health and your self-reliant ,can do attitude. And I have felt a special closeness to you because of our shared tremendous love of walking. I know you used to write how you just walked and walked those streets of Manhattan and totally loved being out there. I have read that in our minds we can do those things we love and there will be a neuro-chemical response as if we were there doing what it is that we are thinking about. So, during your recuperation when you may not physically be able to go on your long walking excursions perhaps you can visualize in fine detail yourself making all your usual preparations to go out walking, walking out of your apartment, closing the door behind you , and taking a glorious walk on the most wonderful spring day and seeing the most lovely of all sights and feeling completely perfectly happy doing what you love to do. I can see you out there now. Your friend and walking companion-Osteoblast.
