I found out a couple of days ago that my neighbor's cancer had spread more than they were hoping. She had her surgery and was diagnosed with stage 3C ovarian cancer - just one step better than my diagnosis. They were hoping that it hadn't spread that much... I went to the hospital today to visit with her. This whole experience has been bringing back a lot of memories and emotions from almost 4 years ago. I can't believe that it has been that long! They also found out that she does not have the BRCA-1 mutation - which surprised everyone. That will make her experience and treatment a little different than mine was. She will meet with her oncologist next week to decide on a chemo treatment schedule. (I will only give brief updates here about my neighbor because I don't want to share too much of what is her story.)
