SERIOUSLY GOOD NEWS!

Genetics test came back! I am negative for the "breast cancer gene."   Sometimes that "acting as if" can be powerful stuff, lol.  Super relieved.  Super dooper relieved.  Guess I am an anomaly -- as per usual. YAY ME!

OH other big news, surgery date moved up to next Tuesday.  Yah I know.  They had a cancellation so might as well get this thing out out out of my body as soon as possible.   For a girl that has a hard time changing gears mid stream -- well, I guess another lesson learned.  Just keep swimming and keep your head up

HEY LET ME REITERATE... I am gene negative. Sometimes negative is so positive you want to kiss it -- right in it's face.

  1. That's great, and probably a good sign for Mick, Julia and Audrey -- so even greater.

  2. Caitlin,

    That is fantastic!

    Oh yes, you are a special and wonderful anomaly indeed!

    I'm also gene negative; I got tested because my mom, who was diagnosed and successfully treated over 10 years ago, is positive. But your story is a reason for me not to get cocky about that and to keep up my self exams, etc.
