This morning we went to Yale’s Breast Center and met with the head of their breast cancer unit. First off, she was such a wonderfully soothing woman to meet. All and all, I have been so very lucky to have met some of the finest breast specialists along the way. Today rounded my last 6 months out nicely.

Our main reason for having the meeting was to ensure that such great results, as I’ve been so blessed to receive, were how another cancer team might approach treatment. She reviewed my case with us and delivered such a positive outlook for the future. Not only did she agree that no radiation and chemotherapy would be needed, but she even felt that the hormone therapy was quite optional. She asked me to periodically review my choice to stay with it. So, I’m going to research the long term risks and decide if I stop the treatment. At two and a half months into the 5 years recommended, I have been side effect free. I’ll keep everyone updated on what I decide as I go.
