Pretty good physically. I'm not in great shape, haven't been since I was a teenager. But I've survived all this with minimal impact to my life.

I'm closer to my sister and family. They've helped me when ever possible during and after my surgeries. I'm worrying about work much less on a daily basis, but this economy makes that a little difficult. I'm also much less self conscious about my body! Hard to be when you haven't got the goods anymore!

I have a very strong marriage, daughter and family. Work is going well and I have wonderful support at the office from both my staff and my supervisors.

My mind! Will the cancer come back after all I've done to prevent that? Will my heart recover from Herceptin? Will I keep my job? How will my future look?

The treatments and the looks from others. I didn't wear a wig or scarf when I lost my hair. I was called 'sir' frequently and got worse reactions from other cancer patients than any one else! I just couldn't stand to have anything on my head - it was too hot. And it was a bother.

My husband. I don't trust anyone else.

I don't know how to change them. I don't know what to expect.

I work 40 plus hours every week. I'm a full time manager of 4 engineers/designers. It's a demanding field for a woman. I'm the only woman manager in my office.

My office has been very supportive on the surface. I'm worried that it will all collapse in this economy.

I love engineering and solving problems. We help the communities we work in by providing sewer, water, transportation, etc. And the people I work with are good role models and friends.

Work when you can.
Be clear up front with the fact that you don't know how the treatments will affect you.
Also with the fact that each is cumulative, i.e. your strength leaves you a little more with each one.
Don't hide this!

Stayed home until I was better. Except for the damaged heart. I can't do much about that except what the Cardiologist tells me I must do.

Tell people at work (HR, etc.) earlier. Do whatever it takes.
