Default My sister has cancer
My sister had an MRI guided breast biopsy last week. I didn't even know they did those things. Anyway, it came back an aggresive breast cancer. She sees a surgeon next week. My oldest sister died of bone cancer and my Dad had prostate cancer. I am callling tomorrow and scheduling my mammogram of whitch I have missed for the last 3 years.

Oh my goodness, Doydie! That's too bad!

If they're waiting until next week for surgery, maybe that's a good sign??? I mean, it's a week away, so maybe they've caught it early enough.

Hugs to you and your dear sis. Sorry for all your losses.

I'm so sorry to hear of your sister's breast cancer Doydie. My very close cousin is being treated for breast cancer at the moment, and she's doing well. I pray your sister does as well as my cousin once she starts her treatment.

Do please go have your mammogram. My last one found a lump that I didn't know I had. They tried to biopsy it under XRay guidance, but they just couldn't get to it because of it's position.

I ended up having the lump removed in hospital and it turned out to be benign ..... thank goodness.

We'll all be nagging you until you have that mammogram, so please go make an appointment! OK?
