I woke up and felt a lump in my left breast.

What’s My Stage Again: It Was the Breast of Times, It Was the Worst of Times. Hi! My name’s Robin. I’m 28 years old, I live in Brooklyn, and I was recently diagnosed with cancer. I’d like to share my journey and experiences with you each week!

My life was pretty normal until lately; I consumed a lot of cheese and wine, I casually browsed puppies on PetFinder, and I dreamt of being Jennifer Lawrence’s personal assistant. My regular life came to a sudden stop in August, when I was diagnosed with stage IV breast cancer. But I still look up puppies on PetFinder and want to be JLaw’s BFF/mentor someday. I’m still the person I used to be, with just the tiniest bit of extra stress.

Is there any easy way to get the whole story and not just the first post of it?
Thanks.

I planned on blogging my cancer, and I also planned on staying basically the same person. Neither one turned out to be feasible in my case, so I'm pulling hard for her that she manages it.
