Negative on my genetic testing! Yay!!!

I just got off the phone with the genetic testing doctor and my test came back negative on brca 1 and brca 2. Yay!!!!!! They are now running more testing on the same type of genes for different mutations. Hopefully that will be negative too!
They called from Duke today and scheduled a biopsy on the lymph node that is scheduled for this Friday the 7th. Hopefully that biopsy report will be back by next week when I meet with my oncologist. Keep you posted.

Audra- I just got this forwarded from Jaime. I had not heard anything about this. I'm so sorry you are going through all of this. I am living right outside of Raleigh now, so if you ever need anything while you are up this way, just let me know. Jaime and Traci have my contact info. My email is carolinehbird@hotmail.com

Hey Audra, I want to say I know exactly what you're going through, but it's different for everyone. Mine was very fast paced. I found out on a Friday and had a mastectomy on Monday, then went through all the testing for chemo and radiation. The one thing that is the same for all of us is the love of God. Just keep the faith and He will bring you through this. There are so many people praying for you. We will be survivors together! Love, Leslee Fulcher
