Patti's Story

 

as told by her daughter in law, Kim

 

 

Patti was diagnosed with breast cancer 7 years ago, she had surgery, chemo and radiation and it was gone...for a few years. December '02 an x-ray showed that the cancer was back and in her bones. Her last bone scan shows that most of her lumbar vertebrae are cancerous as well as her pelvic bones, femurs, rib, shoulder and skull. A mammogram that she had last week shows that the breast cancer is back as well. She is undergoing chemo and taking it a day at a time. She loves to get things in the mail and she would really appreciate this. Patti loves to sew and do cross stitch.
