The diagnosis hit me like a brick. I was healthy...mammogram every year for decades. Four years ago I got the dx...Halloween day.
I chose Moffitt in Tampa because it’s a teaching hospital, a cancer hospital, and they deal with this every day. It was recommended by a girlfriend here in TV who was very pleased with her care.
I was there for consultation first week of November and chose to wait until early January for my lumpectomy, and I was assured that this was ok. I did the radiation here at The Boissoneault center off Bella Cruz, also with no regrets. That was an excellent choice too.
Now almost four years later, I have other girlfriends who have done the same treatment as I have, and we continue to support each other.
I can share more if you like. Let me know.
Do not linger. Get treatment as quickly as you can.
