Pam's Story
Life
My Pets
I have a cat who, most of the time, drives me crazy and a pomeranian.
My Kids
I have 2 children, Brittany and Steven. Brittany is a sophmor in collegs and is in a nursing program. Steve is an ice hockey player.Steve is a senior in HS and discovered his love for music so joined the chorus and made the chamber choir..who knew???A singing ice hockey player...lol! He is one hysterical kid and could talk to a snail(wonder where he got that from?)......
I am a breast cancer survivor. I was diagnosed in 2003.
Paul really is my "knight in shining armour"..I thank God for him every day. There's a reason for everything and have discovered that I am a very strong person. I am now in the position to help lots of other women who are struggling with cancer....and give them hope!
I was rediagnosed, with cancer in my lymph nodes, right after our 30 year class reunion. I had a 1% chance of recurrence..not vey lucky I guess. I had 28 rounds of radiation and am taking a drug to prevent another recurrence..hope it works because I have a lot of things to do yet!
Feb 2009...now the damn cancer is in my bones..the fight is on...but it's going to be harder this time. Brittany got accepted to Drexel U and I need to help her with so many things.My reunion frie...Expand for more
nds will be updated through emails.I need prayers and a miracle but I will put up a good fight!!
January 2010....my PET scan, in August, was clean. My dr. found no sign of disease! I have been going to healing masses since last Feb. Paul Rymniak is the man who put his hands on me and prayed for a miracle..the heat that went through my body was something I will NEVER forget. Still getting checked every other month...it seems like there will be no end to dr. visits.
Paul and I bought a condo on Marco Island Florida to skip away to. Why wait? I'm going to do all the living I can while I'm here and not put anything off.Everyone should live like that!
November 2010..yet another recurrence. Again, it's in the bones in my hips and T7(which collapsed onto the T8). I have pain which I need to address. I am taking a pill everyday to help the cancer stop growing. Weird thing about the pill is that if you feel real crappy, you know it's working...that's sadistic. So basically in order to live, you have to feel like you just 'exist" with pain as an added feature. How is it that we have come so far in the tech. world but with cancer....not really that far. But I still go on to, hopefully, one day hold a grand child in my arms and be with Paul till we are very old <3
