I’m nearly, now, the age she was then, as we are 19years apart. I came to the same conclusion you have. Better to be healthy, better not to have more surgery, and they are just lumps, even if they look great (and they don’t always.).

I am also blessed and feel privileged and honored to get connected with you as well as know you and about your sickness. I am encouraged to see how you can be a source of help to others who have similar breast cancer. I am sure your tips to such sisters will be of so much help. Be assured of our prayers for you as you fully recover from chemo therapy. I love getting connected with the people of God around the globe to be encouraged, strengthened and praying for one another. I have been in the Pastoral ministry for last 40 yrs in this great city of Mumbai a city with a great contrast where richest of rich and the poorest of poor live. We reachout to the poorest of poor with the love of Christ to bring healing to the brokenhearted. We also encourage young and the adults from the west to come to Mumbai to work with us during their vacation time. We would love to have you come to Mumbai to work with us during your vacation time. Iam sure you will have life changing experience. Looking forward to hear from you very soon. God's richest blessings on you, your family and friends also wishing you and your family a blessed and a Christ centred rest of the year 2018.
