    I'm not up on all the terminology, so will put this is my own words.  I am 53 & have 5 children, 2 step-children. I was diagnosed with breast cancer in my L breast in Feb '12. I had a lumpectomy & then more surgery to clear my margins.  Had chemo as well as radiotherapy because it was aggressive.  My nodes were clear.  My hormones were triple negative, so that was all of my treatment.  Have had 2 checkups since finishing my treatment at the end of September, including a mammogram & ultrasound & am all clear at the moment.
