happy cancerversary to me

one year ago today my husband found a tumor a little larger than a golf ball inside my right breast.

one year ago today a nurse practitioner told me it was nothing, not to cry, and that everything would be okay.

one year ago today i knew my life would forever change.

one year ago today i had to tell my mother and father over the phone that i likely had breast cancer.

one year ago today my mother and father insisted that i was overreacting.

one year ago today i had hair down to my waist.

one year ago today i had a functioning reproductive system.

one year ago today i had a libido of a normal 30-something woman.

one year ago today i hated myself for not doing breast exams regularly and blamed myself for the size of the tumor.

one year ago today
