Oh, and beat cancer!" en http://www.blogher.com/node/22676 <p>I'm a scientist turned stay-at-home-mom, always looking for something fun and exciting to do with the kids. Widget is almost 3; Little Bear is only 6 months old. Dad and the dog round out our busy house of boys. We laugh, we play, we build, and we learn. Welcome to my world, Toddler Planet.</p> <p>Last month, I went to the doctor because my breast "felt funny." I thought it might be mastitis, because I'd had difficulties nursing my newborn. Two weeks later, we were told that it was cancer. Inflammatory breast cancer. This is the fastest-growing, most aggressive form of breast cancer, and treatment must start immediately.</p> <p>I'm 34. I have two baby boys. I also have cancer, and I'm navigating the new world of chemotherapy while parenting my boys. Luckily, I have friends and blogfriends, and we're going through this together. </p> <p>Want to come along? I'd love to have you visit Toddler Planet, at <a href="http://toddlerplanet.wordpress.com" title="http://toddlerplanet.wordpress.com">http://toddlerplanet.wordpress.com</a> and say hello. You can even join the team of women helping me go through this, if you like. </p> <p>I had to cancel my trip to BlogHer, but I'll be cheering you all on in spirit, from back home --</p> <p>Toddler Planet.</p> http://www.blogher.com/node/22676#comments Introduce yourself Sat, 21 Jul 2007 14:50:20 -0500 whymommy 22676 at http://www.blogher.com
