I think we are widely sold a bill of goods that breast cancer is infinitely beatable, so long as it is "caught early." Part of what I've tried to do with this blog and my other public efforts is refute this perception. But I knew so very little about the reality of this disease prior to my own diagnosis. I don't think that made me stupid, just misinformed.Booby and the Beasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01130302818680322634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7238780007621149539.post-67026200158423452292015-01-20T06:17:12.690-08:002015-01-20T06:17:12.690-08:00Caroline, To whom are you speaking in your comment...Caroline, To whom are you speaking in your comment above?!Ginellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06717736668809207205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7238780007621149539.post-24141239346816388812015-01-19T15:30:33.333-08:002015-01-19T15:30:33.333-08:00I do not think you can always win at breast cancer...I do not think you can always win at breast cancer, but there are people that if they do, lots.
