This blog is dedicated to my journey since being diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer in 2011. I post information about breast cancer and its treatments, nutrition associated with healthy living, educational media to share with readers, and my life. My family also contributes blog posts from time to time. See "Pages" links on the right-hand side for more information about my specific diagnosis/stats.

Good News, Good News
We've been anxiously awaiting Laura's genetic test result. The wait is over ! During our appointment this afternoon with Laura's surgeon for a "port check," we were told that the results were negative for the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes - which essentially means that Laura has not inherited the breast cancer gene nor does she need to worry about transmitting it to any children she and Joshua may have in the future. While this information does not change the treatment plan, it is significant and has lifted Joshua and Laura's spirits. Great end to another day that Laura is rating a 10 (out of 1-10) !
