I will be praying for you and praying that it will be good news and that you won't hear the "C" word like I did. I know what it is like to wonder and worry. This journey is hard and I don't want anyone to have to endure it. But, if you do hear the "C" word I know that you know God is with you and that is all that matters. It is a great gift to know that God brought you to my site today. That is the purpose of this site. To help encourage others. God Bless you April! Praying for good news for you!Jaydehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01928124220330232940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9207625792882222788.post-89273381791313784872012-06-18T20:39:13.306-04:002012-06-18T20:39:13.306-04:00God led me to you today.

I too am 36, until August 2012.<br />My story started with a strange abdominal (gasteric) paralysis of sorts at the end of April 2012, led to a week stay at Norton here in KY. God is good, I knew something else was going on. I became aware of some odd & new changes that my right breast began to show, a divet/bruise on top of it. I found what felt like small mass with peebles in my right breast,and a couple small, hard to find under my armpit. I felt I was just 'overreacting', dismissed it as usueless worry. A week went by & I felt the need to feel if it was still there. It was, now easier to find and now another within close proximity. I decided to see a nurse practitioner; she called it 'a cluster'. What is a cluster? came to mind, several starting to connect apparently. This led to a mammogram at James Graham Brown Cancer Center. Still thinking it would be something like Fibrosystic breast disease, multiple pictures were taken which led to ultrasound following. Doctor decided an MRI would be necessary, now worry sets in. Our family insurance plan does not start until July, so all test & visits have been 'out of pocket'. We are not wealthy, my husband is a Police Officer/Coast Guard Reservist; I left my financial mgmt. position in Dec. Now, I WAIT for this MRI, that will reveal how bad & the possible dropping of the 'C' word. Changes are becoming more obvious. Deep down I have these knowing, yet peaceful feeling. Like you, I know with God all things are possible, & he has a plan for this or me amidst it. The waiting is the hardest part; You said it best, "I want this thing out" regardless. I am glad God led me to you, the feeling of being alone is the hardest part, especially since when we think of breast cancer, we think of it as a 'someone else disease'. I just need to know, even though, almost certain. July 1st can't come soon enough. The emotional rollercoaster of a 'take action' kind of attitude followed by 'this can really be it' begin to wear one down. You DO NOT walk alone, that is what God showed me, by leading me to your blog. You are so brave to share & embrace others. He IS using you to reach others; God sent you to me today. <br /><br />With Great Love,<br />April in KYApril in Progresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18270010011861229287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9207625792882222788.post-68891339924534914042012-06-18T20:22:09.240-04:002012-06-18T20:22:09.240-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.April in Progresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18270010011861229287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9207625792882222788.post-91824913259194088832012-04-11T11:08:43.230-04:002012-04-11T11:08:43.230-04:00Jayde,

A cancer Battle Plan Sourcebook by David Frahm. His wife had late stage breast cancer and used juicing and diet etc to get rid of her cancer after all other options failed.My friend also is cancer free at this time after following this book. She chose not to do chemo. I will pray for you and your husband and your many decisions.<br /><br />MarieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9207625792882222788.post-17533061829020796022012-04-10T00:54:21.800-04:002012-04-10T00:54:21.800-04:00Dear Jayde,

I hope the recovery path is short, and you'll have a testimony similar to your mother-in-law. You KNOW we have prayed for you and will continue to pray for you.
