Jacqueline's Health |

|
Breast Cancer (in remission!)
|
| |
|
I am often asked how my health is since I battled breast cancer from Feb. 04 for two years. I am happy to report I am in remission and recent blood, MRI/CT tests are all clear. Added to my mission: the importance for caregivers to closely monitor their own health. Never put off your yearly physical, tests--and ladies, your mammogram!
