Judy ,
May your sister, Miriam, rest in Eternal Love and Peace. One can easily tell you were a source of love, care and support for your sister. I cannot begin to imagine what it was like to be supporting one's sister.......and then while supporting her to receive a breast cancer diagnosis oneself. Judy, you are a strong women. Sincere sympathy. Hoping in your heart, you can hear her continuing to say: Judy, P.S., Te amo (I love you). With caring and supportive thoughts, Grateful for today............Judy |

Dear Judy, I read your beautiful tribute to your sister. I lost a brother as I was receiving treatment. His death was unexpected and not from cancer. It sometimes seems like so much to handle, and I am sorry you had to confront this disease without the support of your sister and your parents. I am glad to hear you are NED.

What a lucky woman she was to have had you as a sister. And the same for you. You were both blessed. I am sorry for your loss but it seems you hold her dearly in your heart and that part of her is with you always, giving you love and courage. ------------- Tested positive for BRCA1 mutation (187delAG) in 4/09 @ age 44; BSO 9/09; diagnosed w/TNBC in 10/09; 1 cm Stage 1 TNBC IDC, grade 3 + 1.5 cm DCIS; BMX 11/09, nodes clear; chemo (AC/T). |

Judy, I've only read your story just now and it pains me to hear that Miriam was your sister and only family that you had. Life is difficult to understand from our limited perspective, but we need to remember that sometimes the best can be brought out in us when we are facing our most difficult tests. I hope that you can find the comfort and support you need through this site and through interactions with people, whatever form those interactions may come in. May your sister Miriam rest in peace and be a continuing inspiration to you. God bless! |

Miriam, Sorry it's been difficult and for the loss of your only family, Sis. Your sister would want you to be strong and live life... You are winning this battle along with the courage your sister has shown you.

Dear Judy,
What a wonderful tribute to your sister Miriam. What unselfish LOVE she showed to you, even though she was near the end of her life. May Miriam rest in peace and may you go forth in this life with wonderful memories of her. What a wonderful thing that you are 2 1/2 years NED.
I do send my deepest condolences at your loss. I pray that time will help to make Miriams memory a peaceful symphony for you.
Keep posting and let us know how you are. We are always here to support, share and listen.
God Bless,
