Dear Ally,

Women support women....no matter who they are or where they live.  I did not know one thing about being triple negative.  The doctor told me absolutely nothing....I happen to work for a woman who lives in British Columbia (I live in Ontario - the other side of the Canada) and all her family is in England.  When I told her about my diagnosis, she immediately activated her women friends in England who sent cards, beautiful and inspirational stories and even added my name to be prayed for by their prayer group. 

Hi Alison I  live ky,usa, diagnosed triple neg, 8/25/06, I am remission since 6/25/07. I know you're scared and in shock, I was too. My youngest child is 18 and he's become extremely over protective of me. he want even go out with friends.   But anyway my doctor first said lets pray its not her 2 positive.  But when he found out it was triple neg he was in shock himself. I know it seems like alot to take all at once, I finally started to relax just recently myself.  I've already gone through 8 rounds of chemo, 4 ac and then 4 of taxotere, no rad. I had a mastectomy and 7 nodes removed 2 being 25% cancerous.  I worry about recurrances to.  But found just out recently from another friend who has triple neg . Shes been in remission for 5 years now., and another lady who is only 33  has been in remission for 2 years and counting. Don' give up You have every right to be scared but even when you think your alone your not I promise.  Hope this helps a little. Remember this, this is what I say to myself
