My best friend at work in her 30's was dx 2.5 years ago with cancer.  She is still fighting.


When she left work, I became best friends with an older woman, who died last June of cancer. 


Today my MOTHER told me she has breast cancer...it is not confirmed yet, but the doctors are sure. 


 I know this is not about ME...but as we get older it seems the bad news never stops.


I'm hoping my Mom has the non-invasive type. 


Both my mom and myself are very negative people. 


My best friend in her 30's is a fighter.  She has been alternating chemo and radiation for 2.5 years straight!  My Mom has said all along she knows she would get very negative and would have died already.


I figured I would come into this room and see how other family/friends of victims of cancer are dealing.
