I found the lump in my left breast myself. Since I had stopped breastfeeding just a few months before, I thought it was just an inflammation in a mammary gland, but I still went to the doctor.

They sent me to do a mammogram, which became an ultrasound and then a biopsy. And then two weeks later I was sitting with my husband and getting told I had cancer.

I’m pretty good. Still seeing some effects from chemo and radiation treatment. Mainly burns on my left side and some massive fatigue. But the hair is growing back at least. 😁🤘

It was basically a hard ball on the left side of the breast. The best way to feel for lumps is to soap up in the shower and slide your fingers along the breasts in circles. Any piece of tissue that doesn’t feel like the rest of the breast should be noted.

Mentally it was feeling that I wasn’t being a very good mom. 😔 My daughter was 10 months when I was diagnosed, and I just couldn’t be the mother I wanted to be. Kudos to my husband for doing practically everything for ten months.

Physically, the chemo was just plain hell, and I wouldn’t wish it on anyone.

Rest! And spending a lot of time with my daughter. And then in the summer I’m going to Sweden Rock Festival.
