Yes, I'm lucky, it was caught early in my yearly mammogram. I had a successful surgery and 16 days of radiation, no chemo. My sentinel lymph node was not involved.

I feel like I have a good chance that I will never see the cancer return; the docs say the same. So I'm grateful and happy to see the New Year.
