How are those of you (like me) who are on estrogen blockers for breast cancer recurrence prevention managing weight/fat gain? Such an uphill battle for a shorty like me. #CanSky #CancerSky #CancerBlueSky #IDC #BreastCancer #ThanksCancer

There are many in some stage of a cancer fight and tomorrow I will join them

I have thyroid cancer and they are removing my thyroid in the morning. Then I will do radiation treatments

I could use a little prayer or some healing energy โœจ ๐Ÿฅฐ

As a breast cancer survivor (who always fears a recurrence), I say anyone who gets in the way of medical research is a murderer.

My name is Katie. Iโ€™m a stage 4 cancer patient. I believe in kindness, respect, and loving thy neighbor. I am saddened by the state of the world and look to make respectful, supportive and caring connections out here. If that sounds like something you want, letโ€™s connect.

CANCER UPDATE
just wanted to let everyone who has left Twitter that I'm home from the hospital. Currently dealing with a myriad of infections. They halted my chemo and an upcoming surgery for a few days. Haven't spent a lot of time over here, yet

Wishing you every success with your scan.

Hi #cansky I am getting my latest test results from my oncologist on Tuesday (CT scan and blood tests). I have every reason to be optimistic that I remain in remission. Still, being an incurable, the anxiety spikes before there appointments.

Sending love to anyone else in the grip of #scanxiety.

Tomorrow marks my 7 th year with mbc and 17 years with breast cancer. This year hasnโ€™t been kind but I am so lucky to have been able to see two of our three get married ; all move out n have homes of their own ; three wonderful grandsons n my hubby has been by my side through it all . #cansky#oncsky
