Without the physicians who are experts in their fields and dedicated to their patients, I would not be so lucky and confident in my life. My story began on May 25, 2005. My radiologist found calcifications on my left breast mammogram. She suggested that I have a needle biopsy, which took place on June 9,… Continue Reading »

My name is Karen; at 41, I had it all! An incredible husband and 2 wonderful children: my son, 10, and daughter, 8. On July 19, 2007, while cooking dinner, I received the call. “You have cancer,” the doctor said.

Among them was the decision to say yes to the significant cosmetic surgery plan with Dr. Alexander. At 57 my body reflected a pear-shaped figure (heavy through the hips and… Continue Reading »

About 5 years ago, I had a minor renovation done to my upper half…when I scaled back “the girls.” While the girls had served me well starting in high school (with an extra large cheerleading sweater to show for it)…I just wasn’t interested in toting around D+ sized weights on my shoulders for the rest… Continue Reading »

My story began last June. I went in for my routine yearly check up with the gynecologist. My doctor thought she felt “something.”  She said, “Well, you are 40, let’s get you in for a mammogram.” I had two cysts when I was 30 and again at 36 so I really was not concerned about… Continue Reading »
