"Maybe the journey isn't so much about becoming anything. Maybe it's about unbecoming everything that isn't really you, so you can be who you were meant to be in the first place." ~Anonymous
I never dreamed that I would be where I am today living Stage 4 Metastatic Breast Cancer. I have faced my share of brokenness, anxiety and fear...but I have uncovered strength, hope, and courage that has led me to live and enjoy my life in the constant face of uncertainty.
I was diagnosed with Stage 4 Metastatic Breast Cancer 4 years ago in August 2014. I originally told that I would live an average of three years. I wondered how I would ever pack everything I wanted to do into three years. Of course, I have done so much, but I keep adding to the list. I am counting my blessings and remembering that every day moving forward now is a gift and a blessing that I wasn't necessarily sure I would have.
After being diagnosed with Early Stage Breast Cancer in 2012 and Stage 4 Metastatic Breast Cancer in 2014, I started to share my story through a blog, not only to update my friends and family, but to also share hope, strength, encouragement, and education with others.
The link to my blog and my travels page are above at the top of the page. Thanks to all of you for your continued prayers and well wishes!
Yours truly,
Lori
