now she is cancer-free and wants to stand out that if people have pets and are acting out of character especially taking more interest in you, it is possible that they may be alerting you to something.
‘Sapphire is quite a lonely dog. He likes his own company, but he kept sitting on me and putting his head on my right breast every night, which was really unusual.”
What else did this woman tell after she found out she had cancer
She mentioned that her tumor was 3 cm when she found it, but it grew to 5 before starting chemotherapy.
He started his cycles in 2018 with 12 rounds of aggressive chemotherapy and after the fifth week he had already reduced considerably. A year later Tanya was declared cancer free.
According to the CDC, triple-negative breast cancer is a type of cancer that does not have any receptors that are usually found in breast cancer.
Fortunately, chemotherapy is still an effective option.
