Re: Carolyn's Update: Seeing Pink

I love how she and her hubby made it a lighter moment when deciding on implants, why not? take a bad thing and make it a good if you can...

I hope she comes out healthy and looking better than ever, what a strong women to work and not tell anyone for so long...

My heart and blessings are going to Carolyn now.  I am a breast cancer survivor of 12 years.  I wish I had gone the route Carolyn did.  I let them go back 5 times.  I just didn't get a "voice" until it was over.   Sigh.   I have a huge group of "survivor" friends, and we all are doing well!  Each of us took a different route in treatment...but we are all in the same boat today, HEALTHY!

 

Sometimes I think getting the diagnosis is the worst.  Fear and shock came first to me (no one in our family ever had cancer of any kind). When the first few days wears off, you cry.  Then, you pull yourself up and get on with it.  When you look back you wonder how you did it.  Life is good, and God is good.  You get through it.  In a few months, you will take a deep breath, sigh and say whew, I did it! The strength just comes from within somehow. 

 

Carolyn, take care.  You are loved, and just a beautiful person inside and out.  Those cute cats and pups would make anyone well with their love!  I envy your "new" girls, hahaha!

 

I have received so much info and support over the years from the Dr Susan Love Breast Cancer Research center. They are a great resource!

 

Take care, be well

Re: Carolyn's Update: Seeing Pink

I believe Carolyn did an amazing job with her arttitude and decision making and just got on with it like she should have, and like I did . You do what you have to do.

 

I'm sorry you had such a bad time, but sharing the negative details  here won't be healthy for anyone now or later who goes through this. Carolyn seems fine and is moving on, praise God !

 

I think she has always been aware that she is beautiful and well-loved. Your comments are sad and depressing to me. You sound so morbid about it all. Hardly the way to give hope and inspiration .

 

I'm glad you didn't tell me this when I was diagnosed and treated, I would have been depressed and started crying.

 

As it were, I understood what was told to me and what needed to be done about it to get on with living my life. Period.

 

I did not sob and gnash teeth, for goodness sake.

 

 

No one said I wasn't  "beautiful" or still  "loved" or going to die, thankfully. If they had

I probably would have clocked them for being so depressing and thoughtless. Who needs negativity at a time like that ?

 

I did what was recommended and lived to the fullest one day after the next. I did have wonderful  happy and positives people all around me to keep my spirits up ! Praise God !

 

Lift people up ! Don't tell your horror stories about your experience, who wants to hear it? Women alll over fear this situation and don't need to store up stories from previous victims about the miseries and lamentations of each person.

 

Gosh, women in general are so poor about this. No wonder our women everywhere live in fear and dred. Then if they get diagnosed, they just remember all of our horror stories projected upon them. Great...let's add to their fears.

 

Attitude is as important as medicine in fighting this. Let's help all women not suffer 

before they even get it because of this.
