Every bit as excellent and triumphant (somehow! There’s something so triumphant about you/this, despite it all) and moving as I knew this would be. Thanks so much for writing this!
Thanks for writing this. Just before moving, I was diagnosed with DCIS via a routine mammogram, thankfully, because it was too small and too deep to feel. Now I'm navigating the US healthcare system to get an appointment to move on to the next stage. It's no fun. I chafe, too, against the pink of it all, but I'm glad it was found before it was big enough to feel. Not that it's any guarantee of anything, but at least it's preventative medicine at work.
Ugh, I'm so sorry you are going through this -- the cancer and the dysfunctional healthcare system. Sending you all the best vibes for the best outcomes!

Aw, thanks!
