Well I have survived two surgeries...one to remove the tumor and a second to remove more breast tissue and a lymph node to see if the cancer has spread, which thankfully the first report shows that it has not!

I am declaring myself cancer free!  After all the tumor is gone and it isn't anywhere else!  The medical world probably doesn't agree with me as they keep running more tests hoping to find some reason to suggest chemo.  I am completely opposed to chemo.  From what I have read we all have cancer cells in our bodies and our immune system fights them off unless there is a site of trauma (think testicular cancer for male bike riders and perhaps tight underwire bras for females) or a weaken immune system.  I am learning how important diet is to our overall well being and how terrible the US diet is, actually contributing to cancer cultivation.  I know I need to change my diet. I could spend lots of time reading and researching but I wold prefer to find a nutritionist who specializes in women who have been diagnosed with breast cancer. If  you know of anyone please let me know ASAP.
