It was brought to my attention today that I haven't updated this blog in quite some time. I guess in a way, I feel like my journey has slowed down so much that there isn't much to update. I'm feeling great, absolutely amazing. I went back to work last week and am just loving it. Feels like life is normal again.
I do have my first physical therapy appt tomorrow. I'm fairly certain that they'll say I'm good and don't need any more care but I'm following through with all the things the doctors suggested (and that is one of them). I still have quite a few doctors appointments - following up on one thing or another. Oh, one HUGE piece of info I guess I haven't shared is that my genetic tests came back NEGATIVE for the BRCA 1 & 2 gene mutation. Again, somewhere there is an angel who continues to be on my side. I'm so lucky.
On another note, it's October which means pink is everywhere in support of Breast Cancer Awareness. It's great to see and I'm glad to see the collective effort to bring attention and funding to finding a cure. An exhibit opened just recently in NY called 'The Scar Project' by fashion photographer David Jay. It's a bit edgy/raw but it truly illustrates what breast cancer looks like. The project is dedicated to the 10,000 women under the age of 40 who will be diagnosed this year.
