Greetings!
My breast cancer treatment has made me realize how blessed I am. I have the support of my family and friends, I live in a community that has some of the top medical facilities in the country, and I caught my cancer early enough to benefit from medical advancements. I would never "wish" breast cancer on anyone, but I am a better person because of it. I feel my blessings every day from the moment I wake up, and I'm grateful for them. This Thanksgiving, think about all the blessings in your life and give thanks! I hope you're feeling well.

Cancer Treatment Plan
The ASCO Cancer Treatment Plan and Summary is a
brief record of your cancer treatment. The form provides a convenient
way to store information about your cancer, cancer treatment, and
follow-up care. The form is also meant to give basic information
about your cancer treatment and follow-up care to future health-care
providers.
The Breast Cancer Survivorship Care Plan was developed to help doctors and
their patients develop a customized follow-up care plan once treatment
is nearing completion.
