NEVER TOO LATE
On November 30, 1998
Is the day I thought I met my fate
Wheeled into surgery at 12 o clock noon
I realized it would be over soon.
Out of recovery, my right breast removed
My family around me, my soul was soothed
The doctor said everything went great
I now realize it's never too late.
To regroup my thoughts, what is special to me
Not a house nor money, but my family
Who rallied support there by my side
Looked at me with love and pride.
I think of years wasted when I thought no one cared
Years alone cause I was too scared
To let love live in my body and soul
It took removing my breast to make me whole.











1. Could someone email me who has or had a good treatment plan for triple negative and tell me with whom and where?
I live in the San Francisco Bay Area, Menlo Park/Palo Alto specifically. I can provide/send my records or travel for evaluation and treatment protocal to a treatment facility.
I am 68 yrs old; health considered "excellent; my tumor was 2.3 c. My surgery, exceedingly smooth, was a left breast mastectomy, two weeks ago. Margin is 3 mm.
My Kaiser facility does not individualize treatment
plans and I am lumped in with other protocals not specific to my pathology.
I am concerned. I want the best possible outcome for my survival and nonreoccurance. Thank you for any assistance or ideas that you can give me.
