My heart is so troubled imaging what you went through with the staph infection. I'm so glad to hear that you are okay right now and starting to heal. I think so many times, people shut down when they are battling cancer or any other illness and we never really know what they are thinking, I dealt with this with my mother. I wish she would have shared more with me about her feelings. Thank YOU again for sharing and allowing us to really know how to pray for you. I pray that God would continue to give you the strength to endure this. He has made you such a strong person and although you may not feel strong at times, know that through this He is glorified and His strength is in you. God bless you Koryn. I am praying for you and for your family. Delberta :) Koryn,

How you even have the strength to write so much after all this, I'll never know. Continuing to send prayers your way. And now that you're a "druggie" with those narcotics (at least night anyways) ... I'll double up on those prayers! Just kidding! Love you, Charleen Hi Koryn,

I had a similiar situation. I felt a hard lump on my right breast. OBGYN.. says.. "Nothing to worry about, you have no family history".. I demanded further testing, as my gut told me something wasn't right. Went for a sonogram.. Radiologists told me I had dense breast , and that it was a Fibrodephenoma.. (?)... he said to follow up in 3 months. WHAT? No. How about follow up with a surgeon in 3 days! That is what I pursued.. and thank god, I did. I was diagnosed with Invasive Ductual Carcinoma 2 weeks later.. ER, PR and HER2 positive. After 8 treatments of chemo, 30 treatments of radiation, 52 weeks of Herceptin, Double Mastectomy with reconstruction. Latis muscle surgery, 2 positive lymph nodes after the neo adjuvant chemo.. and a hystorectomy.. I can say with complete certainty, FAITH, FAMILY, MY Wonderful Oncology Nurse, Staff and Friends, I am a 4 year Survivor and will be celebrating my 5th Year January 2010. Take Control!

You poor thing! I hope it settles very soon on the right treatment. My poor mama got MRSA and C.Diff when she had her stroke (caught them in a French hospital), and my poor SIL has MRSA in her hip joint. Yes IN her hip joint. They had to take it out (it was a replacement joint) and now she's left with no joint in there until it all clears up. What a mess! It seems no country is free of the darn bug :( HUGS to you! Ow!

Thank you for allowing God to speak through you. As you already do know about my sister's cancer story, it in fact was 16 years ago Oct. 1st she lost her battle, but won when she was escorted into the presence of Christ. It was very difficult for me to listen for I still miss her. But do rejoice in how awsome and radient you look. God is good even in the dark times. My joy now will be to watch the planning for Amanda's wedding next summer, as my beautiful nieces are a part of her wedding party. This will indeed be a celebration. Thanks for the new found friendship, i do look forward to many more movie nights(even if we didn't get to that part!) Praise God for your openess and voice. In His grip, Liz Koryn–

I went back end read from the beginning. It was great reading how you got through it with God. I was diagnosed in January and finished the last major treatment last month (lumpectomy,chemo, then radiation). Though my journey has been simpler, it was very good to read about smeone else's jouney. No one else mentions what happens to your nails! (just the one line in the drug sheet "may cause nail discoloration"!). Thank you for taking the time to right, and being so open and honest.
