Misspriss's blog post - October is Breast Cancer awareness month

But for me, every month is breast cancer awareness month.
Every day I look at the scar and feel the sharp pains and put my "breast enhancer" in my bra so that my girls appear even. I am always aware. I am aware that I could have died. I am aware that my odds of someday having another type of cancer is increased. I am aware that my body will forever being missing a 5cm mass that used to be a part of my breast.
I am aware that I don't have perfect boobs and never will... but I am also aware that I am a survivor. I fought a battle and won. I live with pain, but I LIVE. I'm watching my children grow into adults and that is all I asked for, all I pleaded for.

So I posted a picture of my scar and I took a deep breath. This is what cancer looks like to me. This is my reality.

EVERY DAY I am aware.
