Sorry to be a bummer, but cancer sucks.

I think I mentioned that my sister was diagnosed with breast cancer in November. Supposedly they got it so early they would call it stage 0. She had a lumpectomy and discovered it was stage 1, but thought they got it all. Then they said that the kind she had was aggressive and had a fairly high risk of recurrence, so she had a double mastectomy earlier this month. Now she got the results back from the pathology on that and they said it still has a high risk of recurrence so she needs chemo. I feel so bad for her. She can't catch a break on this (although I guess we need to remind ourselves that we caught a break when they found it so early).
