Thank you on all accounts.  Chemo is finished, now I'm physically and mentally preparing for my double mastectomy on 8/9.

Good for you!! Chemo is over. Good luck with your surgery in August. You will do great! I have a friend who went through all of this just over 3 years ago and she is feeling great.
