Update on my cancer journey, of last few years!

[Diane4145]

Hi everyone,

It's been quite a while, since I've been in touch! There has been such a struggle to get the medical care, that I've needed! I am still currently in Mobile, AL where I've been for the last few yrs and I've had to transfer to UAB in Bham, AL, for competent care! It's been easier to get a breast cancer diagnosis, be mutilated, pumped full of 13 mos of chemo that my new Oncologist indicated, that I never should've had and end up looking like Uncle Fester of the Adams family, than fight to get everyone to do their job! I gave up on local care and have my breast reconstruction with tram flap(tummy tuck), scheduled later this month! I'm very excited about finally seeing the light, thru the trees, but, have a long road ahead! I'm moving to Bham indefinitely because after this big surgery, I'll have another extensive open abdominal surgery for the mesh issues, I'm sure you've heard of! This is so humbling to be asking for assistance, but, in order to proceed with my surgery and relocate there, I have no choice! Please view my attachment and share if you can! You'll never know anyone, as appreciative as I am! I hope to get thru this and get back to SOWAL, ASAP!

Sincerely,
Diane

Thank you, Bob, even comments like yours, lift my spirits! I've often said, "if you're not pro active in your care, may as well stay home"! I'm blessed to be a strong and independent personality, but, I'm so tired!
