My name is Corrine. I am 41. I was diagnosed April 22 2024, 2 days after my birthday with breast cancer. I have started chemo therapy and will need a double mastectomy. I just started my dream job in a ICU before I was robbed of my health only 1 month after. Chemo is really hitting me hard. I have had to take a leave of absence from work due to my aggressive treatments. My family is my rock during all this. I am determined to kick breast cancers butt. I am normally a very active person and I have continued to try to be. There are days I can’t even get out of bed. Those days I listen to my body. My kids are being strong. It’s hard for them to see their mommy not feel good. But we keep smiles on our faces. Each day is a new day.

Chemo is going ok: 12 rounds out of 17 down. I start the red devil this Tuesday. I am nervous but I will stay strong. My double mastectomy is scheduled for November 15. Than off to 6 weeks of radiation.
Today is June 3rd. Iam going for a bone scan. Please pray for me that it comes back clean. I need some good news for once
Today is may 28th. I meet with my oncologist about the lung biopsy. It was cancer so now I have been staged at a 4. They are being aggressive with my treatment. My hair is getting really thin and keeps falling out. I am trying to stay strong for my family but some days I feel defeated. Today is chemo treatment 4 of 17
I have had 3 chemo sessions now. My pet scan showed a nodule on my left lung. Lung biopsy on Thursday, I go for a bone scan on June 3rd. I met with the plastic surgeon regarding my double mastectomy surgery to be sometime in October . I have to get extra hydration every week due to the chemo making me so sick. I keep thinking I will wake up from this awful nightmare, trying to stay strong or my family. I want to thank each and everyone who is praying for me and donated.
