Shellie' breast cancer battle

Donation protected

I am Shellie.  I have been diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer at the age of 32.  I am the mother of three boys, and the stepmom to another son and daughter.   This is still fairly new to me but things are moving quite quickly.  I have already had 2 MRIs, two mammograms, an ultrasound, and several biopsys.   Coming up i am having a metaport placed for my chemotherapy, several rounds of chemo, and a complete double mastectomy followed by reconstruction.
     My husband is our only income and  during this process he will have to take a significant amount of time off to care for not only me but our three kids.  I have family but they are all quite far away on the east coast.  My husband is my main care giver in this time of illness.   
I will beat this.  God made me strong and resiliant for a reason.  I have faith that the outcome will be positive.   I just have to get there.   This is not an easy or a fast war I am fighting.
