Wendy at Cafe 640 |
Last September, my friend Wendy was diagnosed with invasive ductal carcinoma. Breast cancer.
Her mammogram nine months earlier was clear.
“That’s how fast it can happen,” she wrote on her blog, “which is why I’ve already been pretty open and honest about my story.”
I saw Wendy Thursday at a gathering to celebrate her last day of radiation. She announced that her doctor had declared her “cancer free.”
She looked beautiful as always when I saw her. A big smile on her face, her positive energy filling the entire cafe.
If only everyone dealing with illness could see her, I thought. How inspired they would all be.
