Put your cutting shears AWAY!!!

Did someone say.......CURED???? Oh yeah my oncologist said it, hell yeah baby. I am so happy, relieved, excited, and other emotions I can not explain. I will need checks but no chemo baby. You can all rest assure you will not have to shave your hair. Still maintain a good cut and highlight regularly, but no baldness for us. Thanks to everyone who held my hand through this I know I squeeze hard and the support was incredible. I feel sort of like it was "fake cancer" but there really is nothing fake about what I am going through, well with exception to my boobs now. There is a long road ahead but one that is not filled with more cancer, chemo and radition I will never stop sayng this...EARLY DETECTION SAVED MY LIFE! Had I been so involved in Komen and what it teaches I may have a different outcome. I will be the poster girl for this cause forever, so be ready to celebrate my life, a life as a stupid breast cancer survivor. WHOOT WHOOT!!!! I can't fist pump it still hurts:)

  8. I am at a loss for words and we are beyond thrilled for you! It is so wonderful to hear confirmation that YOU have kicked the snot out of this breast cancer crap! You have shown such an IMMENSE amount of STRENGTH and COURAGE in such a short amount of time. This "road block" weaseled it's way in to your journey through life and you faced it head on. YOU showed breast cancer that it did not detour the power of YOU!

    AM~you truly are not only AMAZING but an INSPIRATION to not only me but many! One would only be so lucky to have the strength in which you have shown during this difficult time. We have prayed and will continue to pray for healing and strength for you, as well as, Tom, your boys and the rest of the Family!

    Chris and I want to THANK YOU for sharing your journey with us and everyone else who cares and loves you by creating this blog.

    Sending you all our love!

  14. Husband here. Crazy. Feels like we just walked out of the theater half way through a scary movie. This has changed us: you, me, the boys, and everyone around us. I always knew you were strong, but the real strength you showed us was your grace and humor as you were slapped in the face with this disease. And then to share all of this with the world...damn. So proud to call you my wife. xoxo
