I am so sorry for your loss Mini. (((((hugs))))))
My mum had breast cancer 4 years ago and had surgery, radiotherapy and is now entering her 5th year of remission and hopes to come off the hospitals list in the new year. There's no guarantees.. her best friend had it too, then remission for 8 years and then it came back with a vengeance and she had a mastectomy. Happy to say she is well and living life to the full.
It's such an unknown entity - a young cousin (21) had testicular cancer , got treatment early and went on to father 2 children.
Not all,as we are so painfully aware., are sucess stories... my grandfathers both had cancer, different types. (bowel and lung).. and my best friends lovely mum Joyce died of breast cancer 15 years ago.
No rhyme nor reason, sense nor logic...
Thinking of all of you whose lives have been touched by cancer in any way at all and hoping you have peace in your hearts and know you are in thoughts and prayers of those who care. xxx
PS. Can't work out how to do the pink thing, but know if I could have it would be on here!
