Marleens layout https://ozone.oscraps.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=314819&title=marie-curie&cat=1351 about MARIE CURIE triggered something I was wondering whether to share but since you are my O family .... the not so good news is that I'm joining the pink ribbon brigade - they just discovered that I have breast cancer- but the good news is that it is quite contained and has not spread so an operation to remove it , probably followed by radiation therapy should do the trick.

it's thanks to Marie Curies invention that it was discovered during a routine- once every 3 years - x ray so I do urge you if you get the chance to have those x rays on the National Health do take it up .I had no inkling what was going on in my body

Ellen - Wishing you healing thoughts my friend! You and Chris can swap stories when she gets back from her weekend at the lake. I'm sure she will be anxious to talk to you when she finds out.

I'm so glad there is good news for you though I am sure it's scary at the same time. Much love dear!

I am on my ancient tablet up here, but yes, I am totally with you sweetie. It is such a weird situation, that it you caught it early, but crap! It is still cancer.
If you ever need to talk or vent or need support, I am only a pm away. Love and hugs.

And I just re read your post, and that was my course of treatment too. Surgery, then radiation. I was estrogen and progesterone positive, but because of my other health issues, hormone therapy isn't really an option. Because I am premenopausal, there aren't as many drugs that are recommended options for me.
And yes, I tell everyone now to get their mammograms. Yes, they are a pain in the boob LOL but can really make a difference between a great prognosis and another not so good one.
Breast cancer.org was a very helpful website for me if you need support or info from the "real world."

Good luck again.xoxo
