From the beginning...

In October,2005, I found out that my mom had breast cancer and my father had prostate cancer.  Needless to say the heartbreak was unimaginable.  I felt so lost.
I couldn't eat, when I did, it wasn't staying around for long.
I finally went to visit them, I didn't realize that they had been undergoing tests and had tons of lab work.  This was the first time I felt out of the loop!
Mom had a mastectomy on her left breast and had reconstruction to the other.  Dad went to Loma Linda Cancer Institute and had proton therapy.  He is clear to this day.  However, about 2.5 years ago, he was diagnosed with Alzheimers.
And that is the first part of the journey.
